Nomadic Becker-Remy
Nomadic Becker-Remy explores a third location in our beloved city of Leuven. For the first time the exhibition will take place outside the centre of Leuven. Having said that, the Becker-Remy square should prove to be the perfect soil for the three participating artists.
We are proud to welcome Ayrton Eblé, Fabiola Burgos Labra & Julie Van Kerckhoven for Nomadic Becker-Remy.
As tradition dictates, we festively celebrate the opening of the exhibition on Friday (11/10) with three arts and music performances tailored to the specificities of the square and its surrounding public space.
Nomadic?
Nomadic is a biannual social art project which brings together artists, musicians, and cultural organisations with residents, merchants, social initiatives, and institutions.
Nomadic starts from that which is already present in a given neighbourhood. Artists are invited to work around the notions of public & private space, creating a site-specific exhibition throughout the neighbourhood’s streets, squares, facades, and inside its bars and shops.
Each edition is paired with an exciting activation program, celebrating local space by initiating concerts, performances, screenings, workshops and more. This is done both in collaboration with local associations, as with institutions and cultural centers.
Doing so, Nomadic aims to create genuine connections between locals and artists by bringing art outside of its conventional boundaries and into an undefined space. We hope to reflect on how we can share urban space, sparking a dialogue with the neighbourhood.
Nomadic Becker-Remy is made possible with the generous support of the City of Leuven.
