Giant spider on Belfry tower heralds opening weekend of Brusk art gallery in Bruges

A giant spider sculpture by Compagnie La Machine, titled *La Grande Araignée*, has been installed on the Belfry of Bruges to herald the opening weekend of the new Brusk art gallery. The weekend festivities also include a highline act by Belgian collective Lyapunov, a tightrope walk between the Belfry and the Church of Our Lady, and a tape art installation by Numen/For Use inside the gallery. The public can explore the building before its official opening in May 2026.
