With Germaine Rimbout
20/05/2026 – 18/10/2026
This spring, the Spilliaert Room brings to light a figure who long remained in the shadows: Germaine Rimbout (1894–1973), a Brussels-based artist with a singular trajectory.
Influenced by Cubism and Fauvism, her work evolved after the Second World War toward a freer abstraction and an increasingly daring colour palette.
An exhibition driven as much by the strength of the work as by the personality of the artist. As a female creator in a world still largely dominated by men at the time, she succeeded in forging her own path.
Her artistic journey reflects the tensions and aspirations of an era.
