Exhibition
On the birthday of Emile Claus, our country’s most important impressionist, the mudel is launching the prestigious exhibition “Emile Claus. Prince of Luminism” which brings together dozens of the artist’s masterpieces. The title of the exhibition was inspired by a 1946 publication by Alice Sauton. The finest paintings from all periods of his oeuvre will be shown, thanks in part to the exceptional collaboration with the Museum of Fine Arts of Ghent as well as through important loans from various public and private collections.
The exhibition will run from Friday, September 27, 2024 to Sunday, January 26, 2025.
