During the 58th Venice Biennale, Belgian artist Koen Vanmechelen heralded the birth of the Human Rights Pavilion, an evolving artwork that will take shape over the course of three years, as it travels the world, visiting almost every continent on earth. In 2022, Vanmechelen will present his completed OPUS at the next Venice Biennale, as an appeal to the world, and possibly as the start of a recurring international human rights pavilion.

This exhibition of new projects showcases over 30 international artists who have created works in glass in collaboration with the master glass artisans at Berengo Studio on the island of Murano in the Venetian lagoon. Glasstress Boca Raton II is a sequel to the acclaimed 2016 Glasstress exhibition at Boca Raton Museum of Art and includes new artists and major new works created since that time.

The future is based on ancient times and reflects the simultaneity of every moment.
We are the others.
Then is now is later.
Remembering is predicting.

Shamanism is a group exhibition curated by James Putnam that aims to explore a shamanistic tendency in contemporary art practice. Shamanism is a universal phenomenon that relates to humanity’s relationship to art and spirituality through nature with its roots in the cultures of indigenous peoples. Yet the term is increasingly used in a wider context to encompass many aspects of alternative healing and creative practice.

With 'A Soft Gentle Breeze' the summer of 2021 brings a fresh breeze to Westende. Not only in Villa Les Zéphyrs and the Saint Theresa Chapel, but also in the immediate surroundings, the former rose garden seems to be blooming again. Outside becomes inside and inside seems to be a backdrop for what is happening outside. The proximity of the playful sea, an enchanting garden, a fountain of buckets, stained glass windows and toys. The flags flutte the colors light up and the flowers bloom like a gentle breeze in your head. Through art, the west wind awakens, the wind personalized by Zephyros, who could make nature smile and breathe again.
