Even though the contemporary art scene in Brussels seems to take a long summer nap, letting the festivals and other outdoorsy activities taking over, we can still find from time to time few new openings or art/culture events that will artsy up the end of July. Of course there is still a lot of ongoing shows, so don’t forget to check your summer essential exhibitions guide to keep yourself update about what’s going on.
I added to this list, the sculpture/installation of the Italian contemporary artist Michelangelo Pistoletto, that is displayed since the beginning of the month at the Council of the European Union, as it’s a true must see.
