The Gutter Twins (AB, Brussel, 11-4-2008)

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Other

Wow! Greg Dulli and Mark Lanegan, live, together...what more can I say? Just listen to their first album as "The Gutter Twins"; it is something really special!
It was a pity the concert wasn't that long because Greg Dulli wasn't feeling too well (I just read he was even taken to the hospital!) but it was still pretty great!

A Curious Land: Wallonia (Bozar, Brussels, 22-3-2008)

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Other
No you haven't missed anything: Wallonia is not a country you have never heard of. Un till further notice Wallonia is the French-speaking part of Belgium (well actually the small German-speaking part of Belgium is also part of Wallonia but let's not make it harder for all non-Belgians ;-p).

This exhibit focuses on art that was made in this part of our country from the 12th un till the 16th century but it also includes some contemporary pieces.
It's a lovely, well-designed exhibit with loads and loads of treasures. The combination of old and new is very beautiful too.

Check out the exhibit un till 18-5-2008. Site

Paul Klee (Bozar, Brussels, 22-3-2008)

Theatre Here, There and Everywhere

Not many great artists come from Switzerland but Paul Klee (1879-1940) is the exception to this rule. I have always loved his work ever since I came in contact with Bauhaus-art. His works are very special, child-like sometimes and funny but also poetical and technically perfect.

This is the first Paul Klee exhibit in Belgium since 1948 so we haven't had a chance to see much of his work live yet. The exhibit focuses mainly on his love for music, theatre, circuses and puppet shows.
His world is a lovely world to be in and the design of the exhibit is very pleasing too so check it out!

Exhibit un till 11-5-2008, not open on mondays. Site
