{{{Brussels Autumn Jazz Festival}}} A stream of music is coming your way to be shared with friends: the River Jazz Festival features 14 concerts, an exhibition and the River Jazz Night linking three Brussels venues that have close associations with the ‘blue note': the Marni, the Jazz Station and the Senghor. Artists from Brussels, Belgium and Europe will bringing an entertaining fortnight to life, topped off by something new: dancing at the Jazz Station swing party. Whether they are at the start of their careers or celebrating 30 years of making music together, the artists on the bill vibrate with jazz as it is today. Urban, hints of tradition, contemporary, gipsy, instrumental and vocal (…). The concerts are being given in Ixelles, Etterbeek and Saint Josse until 10 December when the brilliant violinist Alexandre Cavaliere will be playing on three stages one after the other during a unique and unforgettable evening. At River Jazz you can be sure that music and Brussels are the life and soul of the party!

Alexandria: Past Futures
Alexandria: Past Futures, an exhibition of some 200 artifacts from major European museum collections, highlights one of the greatest cities of the ancient Mediterranean at the peak of its cultural influence. The exhibition provides a fresh perspective on Alexandria, one of the great centres of ancient civilisation, and sheds light on its urban, political and religious organisations, the everyday life of its citizens, and its influence on science and philosophy, which spanned from the third century B.C. to the fourth century of our era. Some twenty contemporary works of art enhance the theme of the exhibition and, thanks to a carefully designed scenography, provide an analytical and poetic backdrop to its various parts. In addition, incursions into other periods – Byzantine, Arabic, Modern – will enrich the focus of the exhibition and provide a more comprehensive understanding of Alexandria throughout history.VIDEO GUIDEClick here to download the free exhibition’s visitor’s guide.Don't forget to bring your headphones or earphones.Co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union in the framework of the international project 'Alexandria: (Re)activating Common Urban Imaginaries'.

Design and Transformation. Stories of Czech design 1990 – 2020
In the frame of the Czech Presidency of the EU, the exhibition “Design and Transformation. Stories of Czech Design 1990-2020” presents the Czech Republic as a place where innovations that are beneficial in an international context are born and where locally specific traditions are also preserved and valued.
The exhibition explores the selected projects of thirteen successful companies that reflect the upheavals of Czech history and have a long legacy of products known far beyond the borders of the Czech Republic such as the international car manufacturer Škoda and furniture producer TON, as well as other young companies. Furthermore, the show will also pay homage to more traditional Czech domains, for example glassmaking.
To accompany the exhibition, a presentation of the Prague Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design will be included, which features a video projection on the facade of the Prague House in Brussels.
Main Organizer: UMPRUM Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague together with Moravian Gallery in Brno and the Design Museum Brussels.

Marsupilami, The Houba Show
The Gallery of the Belgian Comic Strip Centre welcomes a rather peculiar animal that is well known in the Belgian comic strip world: the Marsupilami!
The Marsupilamus Fantasii, that secret and fascinating animal, has been accompanying the readers of Spirou for several Amazonian springs by now. His first appearance dates from 1952 in the album Spirou et les héritiers. In this album, Fantasio and his horrible cousin Zantafio are in charge of bringing back a specimen of this extremely rare animal, living only in Palombia. But it is in the episode of The Nest of the Marsupilamis that the future star of comic art will definitively enter the legend. This mythical book is a real goldmine of laughter, dazzlement, adventure and discovery.
To mark this bouncy anniversary, the Belgian Comic Strip Centre is organising an exhibition that will allow you to take your first steps into the Palermo jungle, literally and figuratively. In a torrid and tropical environment, you will discover fantastic original drawings by Batem, Franquin, Frank Pé, Goum... But also drawings, mythical collectors' items and settings more Marsupilamian than real life. The little ones can try to put together a Marsupilami tail in a puzzle, or discover the immersive film that is shown in the Parc Spirou. And it is not impossible that the whole family will have the idea of building their own nest on the walls of this dazzling building designed by Victor Horta, the master of European art nouveau.

On Display. Designing the shop experience.
As an object of design and architecture, the store shapes our urban landscape and permeates popular culture. A place of exchange and interaction, it plays a significant role in the diffusion of design and interior design trends during the 20th century. By combining small scale and ephemeral character, the store reveals itself as a favorable terrain for experimentation and expression of modernity. More than just a place, retail is a social marker and a space for innovation. Reflecting the evolutions of our society and an environment favorable to their representation, the store offers a look at modern and contemporary aesthetics. From Adolf Loos to Marc Newson via René Herbst or Ettore Sottsass, “On Display. Designing the shop experience” questions the use of design and architecture within a visual and furniture identity specific to the store.

PHOTO I BRUT #1 - collection Bruno Decharme & installation vidéo Angel Vergara
PHOTO | BRUT BXL is a project of exhibitions and multidisciplinary events coordinated by the Centre d’Art Brut et Contemporain La « S » Grand Atelier (Vielsalm) in collaboration with Bruno Decharme, collector and founder of abcd-art brut in Paris, and 4 partner organisations based in Brussels: CENTRALE for contemporary art, Botanique, Art et marges museum and TinyGallery.
In 2019, the annual summer photography festival Rencontres d’Arles held the exhibition PHOTO | BRUT collection Bruno Decharme & compagnie which was taken over in 2021 by the American Folk Art Museum in New York. In 2022, Bruno Decharme and Anne-Françoise Rouche have decided to reveal other facets of “raw photography” through recent discoveries of works by a hundred artists.
PHOTO | BRUT BXL collection Bruno Decharme includes exhibitions, installations, workshops, performances, two study days and new publications. The programme is based on the theme of “raw photography”. Through photographs, photomontages or photocollages, these creators, generally self-taught, reveal their personal universes through works produced outside conventional artistic circuits. This little-explored field of research on outsider art opens up a path towards innovative practices in the field of photography, thus contributing to renewing the way this medium is seen. This project thus questions the role of the collector, his or her power over the categorisation of creators, as well as photography.
In the context of the project PHOTO | BRUT BXL, CENTRALE presents nearly 200 photographs from PHOTO | BRUT collection Bruno Decharme & compagnie exhibited in Arles. True to its programming principles, the art center of the city of Brussels has also invited Brussels-based artist Angel Vergara for an open and unique dialogue with Bruno Decharme. His work is inspired by the continuous research on the power of the image through performances, videos, installations, paintings and drawings. He tests the limits of art and reality, and stretches the boundaries of reality and its perception. His research on how the contemporary image shapes the interconnected public and private spheres perfectly resonates with “raw” photography. Each piece of Vergara’s work is an attempt to shatter the image; it strives to have an impact on the aesthetic, sociocultural and political level. For this project he was inspired by filmed portraits that the director Bruno Decharme dedicated to the creators of his collection.

Marc Sleen 100. Nero 75. A century of change.
To celebrate Marc Sleen's centenary year, we are juxtaposing his body of work and the universe of his creation with the world as it is today. The images of yesterday sometimes clash with the values we hold dear today.
Marc Sleen created the drawings for 217 Nero comic books. This is just one series but it includes so many comic books. He achieved a world record which is officially recognised in the Guinness Book of Records. Sir Marc Sleen was also awarded a knighthood by the king. His work and career, however, are also an extremely valuable reflection of a past era. Time passes and pushes us forward, and sometimes we may feel resentful about what has been. To celebrate his centenary year, we are juxtaposing Sleen’s body of work and the universe of his creation with the world as it is today, with the changes that have taken place, with evolution. The images of yesterday sometimes clash with the values we hold dear today.

Squarely Furry
Little Furry wakes up every morning and hurries to the toilet which is far too big for him. He then hurriedly tucks into his breakfast, gives his mummy a kiss, and then briskly walks to school. To school? There is nothing more uncertain, as adventure awaits him on the corner of the street.
Little Furry wakes up every morning and hurries to the toilet which is far too big for him. He then hurriedly tucks into his breakfast, gives his mummy a kiss, and then briskly walks to school. To school? There is nothing more uncertain, as adventure awaits him on the corner of the street.
This unchanging pattern, with different variations each time, is the invention of comic artist Pierre Bailly and scriptwriter Céline Fraipont, who have created a completely wordless comic book accessible to children from the age of 3.
Highly colourful, this playful exhibition invites children to climb, jump, hide and crawl, from one panel to the next, immersing themselves in a different adventure each time, just like Little Furry.

Cerise, Lulu and Nelson, the world of childhood by Aurélie Neyret
The French illustrator and cartoonist Aurélie Neyret has made of the world of childhood her creative universe. After numerous illustrated books and collective publications, she made her debut in comics alongside Joris Chamblain with the series Les Carnets de Cerise, the success of which brought her recognition from the public as well as from critics. This was followed by the adventures of Lulu and Nelson, a story written by Charlotte Girard and Jean-Marie Omont. With a dynamic and colourful style, the illustrator presents endearing young heroes in search of themselves and of freedom. A sensitive and original universe that the exhibition proposes to explore and discover all its depth and creativity.

Shin hanga
The Shin hanga exhibition will feature no less than 220 Japanese prints from two private collections in the Netherlands, as well as sketches, studies and prints from the collection of the grandson of the publisher Watanabe. Next to these works, the visitors will find a selection of Shin hanga prints from the rich collection of the Art & History Museum.
The Shin hanga (literally « new prints ») art movement was a revival of traditional printmaking (ukiyo e) in the early 20th century. The publisher Watanabe Shōzaburō (1885-1962), noting the decline in xylographic production due to competition from new imported techniques such as photography and lithography, was the movement's greatest promoter. He gathered around him artists whose drawings were printed using traditional woodblock printing techniques.
While retaining classic themes such as landscapes, beautiful women (bijin), kabuki actors and flowers-and-birds, Shin hanga prints also reflect a modernizing Japan and seduce with a new aesthetic and an extremely high production quality.
Artists: Kawase Hasui, Itō Shinsui, Ohara Koson, Kasamatsu Shirō, Komura Settai, …
This exhibition is a logical follow-up to the major Ukiyo-e exhibition held at the Museum in 2016 2017. It takes up the history of traditional printmaking in Japan where the 2016 exhibition ended.

Miradas de Mujeres Isabelle de Borchgrave X Frida Kahlo
Miradas de Mujeres (Women’s Gaze), highlights the view of Belgian artist Isabelle de Borchgrave on Frida Kahlo, a woman’s perspective on the artist’s role in society, and their shared love of fabric, patterns and colours.
Isabelle de Borchgrave’s approach explores an often-ignored facet of Frida Kahlo's intimate personality, surprisingly more cheerful and radiant than her artistic work might suggest. By using more than 4 kilometers of paper and cardboard painted by hand, she created dresses, carpets, furniture, trees, recreating the unique universe of the Mexican artist and her iconic house, the Casa Azul (The Blue House).
The exhibition invites the public to dive into the joyful universe entirely made of paper of Isabelle de Borchgrave and to be inspired by the generosity of this contemporary artist whose creative practice remains resolutely incomparable.

Shimabuku - Instrumental
Can art be instrumental or useful? Shimabuku’s work gives this recurrent demand an absurd spin, while reaffirming art’s essential role in the realm of the imagination.
Shimabuku's work turns our view of daily life on its head, enabling us to see things from a new perspective, infused with surreal humour and playful beauty. Taking various forms – from transformed objects to actions documented on video, often accompanied by short poetic texts – Shimabuku’s engaging projects reveal his curiosity about the world and awaken ours. For his WIELS exhibition, his first in Belgium, Shimabuku presents a selection of recent works, together with little-known or rarely shown existing pieces.
The exhibition’s title Instrumental highlights the importance of music for Shimabuku, as evidenced by its central role in the videos shown here. It also evokes the many instruments that Shimabuku creates, from manual tools and ingenious inventions to functioning musical instruments: for example, using an archer’s bow to play the double bass, transforming an instrument of war to play jazz.

Jean-Pierre Ghysels
The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium dedicate an exhibition to Jean-Pierre Ghysels (Uccle, 1932), a Belgian sculptor who studied with Zadkine at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris. The exhibition will give the public the opportunity to discover a series of sculptures made of the artist's two favourite materials, beaten copper and bronze, works which, even when small in size, surprise us with their monumentality and sensuality.

Picasso & Abstraction
For the first time, the major stages that marked the links between Picasso's work and the history of abstract art is brought to light.
From the first Cubist experiments of 1907, carried out on the fringes of Les Demoiselles d'Avignon, to his later work, which is sometimes situated on the borders of action painting, this surprising relationship is shown in a subtle chronological and thematic exhibition, where more than one hundred exceptional works reveal the artist's pendulum movement between abstraction and the figurative over the decades.
Another major theme of the exhibition is the artist's studio, a true formal laboratory, and shows Picasso's creative process through various series of drawings and prints, allowing the viewer to understand how he works and reflects on the representation of the chosen motifs.
The exhibition, with its sharp and innovative theme, invites the viewer to appreciate Pablo Picasso’s extraordinary creativity and his ability to constantly reinvent himself.

Bond in Motion
For the first time on the European continent, spectacular sets, making of models and about fifty original vehicles (motorcycles, cars, planes, submarines, hovercrafts, helicopters, ...), straight out of the 25 James Bond films, will be gathered in one place from December 9, 2022 to May 14, 2023 at Brussels Expo.
For the first time on the European continent, the "Bond in Motion" exhibition is a first for the city of Brussels and the Brussels Region. Brussels Expo will host this exceptional event, starting on December 9. Created in 1953 by Ian Fleming, brought to the screen in 1962 with the film James Bond vs, the James Bond saga is more alive than ever. If the most famous agent in the world has succeeded in many of his missions, it is often thanks to the vehicles designed by the ingenious "Q". From the early Aston Martin DB5 to the latest model, from the Lotus that turns into a submarine to motorcycles, boats and planes, "Bond in Motion" will give film enthusiasts the chance to step behind the scenes. In the 60 years of its existence, the creativity of the teams behind the James Bond adventure has never failed. "Bond in Motion" is an opportunity to discover not only the vehicles but also the secrets of their making through documents gathered for the first time. The realization of the cult scenes and the most extraordinary stunts will finally be revealed. Many other "non-automotive" objects will also be exhibited and will certainly cause some nice surprises.
Throughout the duration of the exhibition "Bond in Motion", animations, meetings and events will be organized around the 007 saga. More than an exhibition, "Bond in Motion" promises a real experience that will enthrall all audiences, from the youngest to the first time fans, from the crazy cinema fans to the technology enthusiasts and the adventure fans, without forgetting all those who want to live a family outing that touches all generations.
Many animations and various surprises (still classified top secret for the moment!) will be planned for young and old.
A 007 bar - restaurant and James Bond stores will of course be in the right place, ready to ready to satisfy the desires of visitors.

Arié Mandelbaum

Frequently exhibited, the work of painter Arié Mandelbaum (°1939, Brussels) had not yet been the subject of a retrospective. For the first time, old productions and recent creations engage in dialogue here, in a journey which starts in 1957 and ends in 2022.
The Arie Mandelbaum exhibition is an original creation of the Jewish Museum of Belgium. Frequently exhibited, the work of painter Arié Mandelbaum (°1939, Brussels) had not yet been the subject of a retrospective. For the first time, old productions and recent creations engage in dialogue here, in a journey which starts in 1957 and ends in 2022.
Arié Mandelbaum, the son of Polish Jewish immigrants, began painting at the age of sixteen. As from the early 1960s, he was considered one of the most promising talents in Belgian painting. His idiosyncratic and compelling oeuvre continued to develop over the decades that followed. After the heightened expressionism of his early days, greater restraint followed as of the 1980s, giving rise to works of disturbing fragility, which he has created to this day.
The exhibition is structured around different themes. We first discover the way in which the artist deals with intimacy, before politics – especially the anti-authoritarian protest of 1968 – telescopes his soul-searching. The visit continues with the exploration of the self-portrait and the body, two themes through which we see the work of Arié Mandelbaum transform into a reflection on trace, absence and erasure. Political violence, particularly related to (neo)colonialism, then made a marked return in his work. Over the past two decades, it has become increasingly influenced by the memory of the Shoah – as a return to what was repressed in this child of the war, who will remain a rebel painter all his life.
The works presented come from the collections of the Jewish Museum of Belgium, but also from institutions such as the Museum of Ixelles, the Museum of the National Bank of Belgium or the collections of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. A number of private collections have also been mobilized, in particular those of private individuals and the Belfius Art Collection.

Kidorama, 200 year of children's fashion
Children’s fashion is healthier than ever. More inclusive, more environmentally friendly, with an emphasis on handmade items: new labels appear each year. But dressing a child is not always easy! Through a trajectory that is both thematic and chronological, this new exhibition casts its eye on current fashion in the light of children’s wear since 1820.
Children’s fashion is healthier than ever. More inclusive, more environmentally friendly, with an emphasis on handmade items: new labels appear each year. But dressing a child is not always easy! Fashion is first and foremost a social phenomenon and children also care about what they wear.
Through a trajectory that is both thematic and chronological, this new exhibition casts its eye on current fashion in the light of children’s wear since 1820.
By delving into its collections, recently enriched by Belgian items as well as several prestigious loans, the museum raises questions about issues such as construction of gender, the development of mixed or unisex fashion, imitation of adult fashion as well as the growing interest in the luxury industry for kids. More than just a fashion exhibition, Kidorama tells the story of the place of the child and the development of his/her personality within our society.
An exhibition to enjoy through children’s eyes!
The exhibition is of course aimed at adults but also at children, discover all the activities of the museum on our website (interactive modules, coloring book ...)

Magical Theatres
The paper theatre, miniature theatre or table top theatre was once a source of pleasure for young and old. These days, it has sunk into oblivion. The "Magical Theatres" exhibition brings back to life the magical world of this toy, its fantastic colourful decors and its small paper actors.
The Halle Gate opens the doors onto a world full of stories, from Shakespeare plays to the tales of the Grimm Brothers.
These delightful works of art, that appeared two centuries ago, reflect the magnificent European theatre stages and give insight in the private world of 19th-century families. The exhibition reveals complete theatres from this period and wonderful uncut original paper stages. Creations by contemporary artists are also on display. Visitors will be amazed by virtual dramatisations. Younger visitors are guided by a paper puppet, Puss in Boots.
The Magical Theatres exhibition is situated on the third floor of the magnificent Halle Gate Museum building. In a permanent presentation, this vestige of the second surrounding wall of Brussels reveals the period in which the city was fortified and offers impressive panoramic views from its rampart walk. The annual temporary exhibitions focus on different aspects of day-to-day life in the past and present, and often find their inspiration in the European Ethnology collections of the Royal Museums of Art and History.
