Inaugural Brussels Art Week stakes a strong claim for the city's scene

The inaugural Brussels Art Week took place from September 5-8, organized by the non-profit RendezVous, co-founded by Evelyn Simons and Laure Decock. The event featured gallery openings, artist talks, institutional shows, performances, and offsite interventions across multiple neighborhoods, deliberately avoiding the traditional art fair model. A centerpiece was a commissioned social space by British artist Zoe Williams titled 'A Tip Inn,' a functioning bar and performance venue that hosted talks, readings, and DJ sets. Participating galleries included Xavier Hufkens (showing Charline von Heyl), Gladstone (Nicholas Bierk), and Mendes Wood DM (Julien Creuzet), while Damien & The Love Guru installed Sharon Van Overmeire's inflatable castle sculpture at Wiels garden.

norwich castle reopens restoration 1234749327

Norwich Castle in Norfolk, England, has reopened after a five-year, $37 million restoration led by architectural firm Feilden + Mawson. For the first time, visitors can explore all five floors of the 900-year-old fortress, including reconstructed Medieval chambers and over 900 artifacts. The restoration reestablished the original Medieval layout with era-appropriate furnishings in the kitchen, chapel, king's chamber, and Great Hall. A new exhibition, "Gallery of Medieval Life," co-organized with the British Museum, features objects from daily life and nobility spanning the Norman Conquest through the reign of Henry VIII. The project was funded by a £13 million grant from the National Lottery Players and £12 million from Norfolk County Council.

A brush with… Jane and Louise Wilson—podcast

Jane and Louise Wilson, identical twin artists born in Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 1967, are featured in a podcast interview where they discuss their collaborative practice since the late 1980s. Working primarily in video installation, photography, and sound, they explore duality and selfhood through loaded sites like abandoned military bases and borderlands. The podcast covers their early inspirations, including John Martin and Cindy Sherman, and the influence of filmmakers such as Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Jean Cocteau, and Stanley Kubrick. Their current exhibitions include 'Performance of Entrapment' at London Mithraeum Bloomberg SPACE (until 10 January 2026) and 'Dendrophiles' at Leadenhall Building as part of Sculpture in the City, London (until spring 2026).

After a £27m makeover, Norwich Castle reopens with a new gallery, royal rooms—and medieval toilets
