Have you ever thought about a 'hole in stone'? An empty space? A passage? A shelter? Nothingness?

In fact, beyond its literal and technical meaning, a hole can be the symbol and the manifestation of an infinite horizon. In its paradoxical invisibility, it reveals unimagined dimensions. “Reflection: The hole in stone” aims to be the artistic argument that the hole is much more than a simple physical characteristic; it opens the way for deep exploration of matter and of our perception. Whether it is a physical challenge between the sculptor and the material, an exploration of form, or philosophical contemplation, the hole in stone reveals itself as a path to broader ideas. Technical, aesthetic, or symbolic, it allows us to play with shadow and light, fragility, and solidity, questioning what it is and what we make of it.

Far from being a negative act, carving into stone is about revealing what it conceals. By offering us a new perspective for contemplation, it unveils not only its inner beauty but also the complexity of its marks of life. As a sum of emptiness and fullness, it offers the possibility of a unique dialogue between us, sculptors and spectators, and stone. Considering the hole as a particular value opens us to a new consideration that unfolds not on the stone itself, but in and through it. “Reflection: The hole in stone” brings together seventeen artists and just as many approaches to thinking about and shaping this void.

📅 The opening will take place on Saturday, January 4, 2025, starting at 12 PM (with exceptional guests) 📅

The exhibition will be held until March 30, 2025.

Come and discover an exceptional exhibition devoted to Alan Tex, an artist whose significant contributions to the field of photography highlight the naked body through theatrical stagings. The exhibition will run from 6 July to 27 October 2024 at the Atelier 34zero Muzeum.

In Alan Tex's visual universe, each image unfolds a clownish narrative, capturing the essence of humanity and its environment. His works take viewers on an introspective exploration, powerfully revealing the multiple dimensions of the human condition. They tackle universal themes such as pleasure, emotions, childhood and death, with remarkable depth and sensitivity. This exhibition will showcase a unique collection of his works, providing an overview of his artistic development.

The retrospective exhibition will reveal a wide selection of his photographic work, in which circus and theatrical inspiration mingle with references to ancient painting and non-European art. Alan Tex's theatrical compositions feature elaborate staging and meticulously designed sets with a unique perspective.

Imagine ArtScience "Creates" 
 
🗓️ Date: April 11-13
📍 Location: Le Bistro, Ch. de Wemmel 281, Jette
 
Led by citizens for citizens with the contribution of artists as part of the New European Bauhaus 2024 satellite events.
In the heart of the Jette community, a dynamic event will unfold where a once blank canvas will become a tapestry of local sentiments. Citizens of all ages will be guided on how to create a unique community artwork, each adding a brushstroke, a line of poetry, a bold sketch, or a splash of color. Together, they will weave a visual and literary mosaic that captures the spirit of their collective experiences. This community masterpiece will grow with each contribution, transforming into a unique emblem that embodies the diverse voices, languages, dreams, and aspirations of the participants. It will be not just art, but a conversation in color and text, a living document of the community's pulse.
Join us for this artistic workshop to launch the Imagine ArtScience exhibition in the heart of Jette.
