Bozar + ING = German Art (19-5-2007)

Rating:★★★★★

Another trip to the Bozar!
And what did they have for us today??

- ikob-Museum für Zeitgenössische Kunst Eupen
Pieces from the collection of this Belgian museum which is in the German-speaking part of Belgium. Un till 27-5-2007, free.

- the main exhibit: Blicke auf Europa
German painting in the 19th century. I love a lot of it (mainly Friedrich, Dahl, other landscape painters) but there are some pretty disgusting works there too (I've always disliked Runge and seeing them up close doesn't help). It's a very interesting exhibit anyway and it really conveys the German Romantic soul.
Today is the last day btw.

- A vision for Brussels
What to do with the capitol of Europe? Small exhibit about an architectural vision for the future. Un till 16-9-2007, free.

- Game on You - Hell'o Monsters
Funny weird cute graffiti-like monster art things. Un till 3-6-2007, free.

- Visit(e) - contemporary art in Germany
In the ING culture centre (which is an old bank complete with a vault btw). Some interesting contemporary art works. I expected more and better works because I've seen so much German art already. It was nice anyway.
Un till 1-7-2007, 5 euro's or less ;-)

The picture by the way is of a statue of the holy Rita and I'm not sure if it's part of an exhibit or just part of the decorations of the Bozar. But who cares; it is a nice site ;-)
