What appears, disappears
With Bert De Leeuw
11/06/2026 – 20/09/2026
Dive into the work of Bert De Leeuw (1926–2007) during the summer of 2026. An artist to the core, who was born a hundred years ago in Antwerp’s Zuid district. One major theme runs through his extensive oeuvre: a fascination with the origins and the transience of life within a cosmic totality.
Throughout his life, Bert De Leeuw continued to search for ways to translate ideas into visual form. As a self-taught artist, he drew on his experience as a painter of cinema posters and set designer at the BRT (Belgian Radio and Television Broadcasting). Throughout his career, he experimented with a wide range of materials: glass beads for a sparkling effect, or pieces of expanded polystyrene to try out large volumes.
With the scenography designed by his son Hendrik De Leeuw, the exhibition promises to be a compelling experience.
