Last weekend I visited some temporary exhibition initiatives, set up in the context of Art Brussels. There was 'Out of Africa', an exhibition curated by Anne-Catherine Kenis and Damien De Lepeleire @ rue de Praetere, Brussels. The show combines classical african art with contemporary artists like Rein Dufait, Christophe Terlinden, Amélie de Brouwer, Olivier Stévenart, Michel François, a couple of mango's and many others artists, things:

And the 'Not really, really' exhibition. For the 5th time Brussels based collector Fréderic de Goldschmidt exhibits a part of his private collection. The show puts mainly sculptures on display and the space itself (a stripped down former mental health facility) dictates the trajectory of display:

Paulo Nimer Pjota, 'Oferenda, paisagem e guerra', 2014

Godbear

Charlemagne Palestine, 'Godbear' @ Documenta 8, 1987.

"I was in three Documentas, but the only one that really counted was the last one, 1987, then I built my big Godbear with three heads, six metres high in mohair. It was the same year that Andy Warhol and Joseph Beuys died." (source Metropolis M)
