Art Brussels, 30th edition and always innovating!
At the heart of Europe, Belgium is a cosmopolitan country where artists, collectors and curators live, create and meet. Talents from all these different cultures, practices and places give Brussels a unique dynamic.

Art Brussels aligns itself with a dynamic perspective that connects it to its city, its country and its time.

Art Brussels invites Curator Samuel Gross to host a number of Art Talks in a new and informal format. These talks will concentrate on the passion for art of top collectors from Belgium and abroad. A totally subjective and altruist insight of the contemporary art world.
