LA PATINOIRE ROYALE BACH

A contemporary art gallery at the cultural heart of Brussels, La Patinoire Royale Bach represents major contemporary artists such as Lita Albuquerque, Alice Anderson, Joana Vasconcelos, as well as the Estates of Carlos Cruz-Diez and Marthe Wery. Recent collaborations include leading figures such as Gordon Matta-Clark, Alfredo Jaar, and Renaud Auguste-Dormeuil, among others.

Also on display will be editions by Carlos Cruz-Diez, the Franco-Venezuelan master of kinetic and optical art, whose multiples offer a rare chromatic and sensory experience, accessible to a wide audience. Finally, the gallery will present sculptures by Jeanne Susplugas, a French artist whose practice subtly questions
