Rendezvous - brussels art week email format

RendezVous — Brussels Art Week is a yearly recurring event, celebrating the richness and variety of the Brussels contemporary art scene, connecting galleries, institutions, artist-run spaces and collective artist studios. Each September, after the summer pause, RendezVous demarcates the starting point for all these dynamic art forces to come into play again. After a softlaunch in 2024, RendezVous launches its first full edition from 4 to 7 September 2025. Join us for a weekend of openings, performances, and spontaneous get-togethers throughout the city’s many contemporary art galleries, downtown, midtown and uptown. “ For us and for many, Brussels is a unique place. Conveniently central, discreetly humble - surrounded by big sisters such as London and Paris, but brimming with a creative energy that is ferocious. A metropolis where perfumed fur coats rustle against grimy leather rave jackets, where day meets night the way Magritte imagined it, where you can have an apéro with a gueuze, a pintje ou bien une coupe des bulles. Where young artists can still afford to live and create, whilst a network of immaculate galleries, renowned institutions and experimental artist-run spaces offer a plethora of impressive exhibitions and transdisciplinary events. A city defined by an enriching diversity, a charming chaos, an avant-garde that has been going steady for over 100 years, and where new trends inscribe themselves onto a canvas of strong art historical traditions. An inspiring melting pot for local and international artists, curators, gallerists, researchers, philosophers, collectors and art dealers.” — Laure Decock & Evelyn Simons, founders RendezVous
