About us
Bozar, the Centre for Fine Arts’ cultural project, offers a dynamic and diversified cultural programme of concerts and exhibitions: a multidisciplinary approach in which debates, theatre, cinema, literature and other disciplines meet to reflect on the connections between art and society. — The Centre for Fine Arts aims to be a European cultural centre, anchored in the 21st century, with a novel and innovative view of society, a laboratory of ideas attuned to society’s current and future challenges. In the coming decade, Bozar aims to embody change, and contribute to seven major and evolving societal challenges. Sitting atop Coudenberg Hill, monumental and yet discreet, the Brussels Centre for Fine Arts is Belgium’s major cultural venue. In 1913, Queen Elisabeth and King Albert I expressed their desire to build “a temple devoted to Music and the Arts”. Designed by renowned Belgian architect Victor Horta (1861-1947), construction began after the First World War. Upon returning from his stay in the United States, Horta abandoned his flamboyant, industrial Art Nouveau style for the more monumental and geometric language of Art Deco. Inaugurated in 1928, the Centre for Fine Arts is a testimony to this aesthetic revolution. For nearly a century, the centre has hosted the art world’s crème de la crème, and it is where most of Bozar’s cultural and artistic activities are held.

We are happy to announce the names of the scientists we selected from the Open Call for Scientists of the new STUDIOTOPIA programme. Three scientists will be joining the two artists Pauline Julier and Delcy Morelos to embark on an innovative art & science journey. The Brussels based architects BC Materials & Studies, represented by Jasper Van Der Linden, as well as two astrophysics researchers based in Grenoble, Faustine Cantalloube and Fabien Louvet, will regularly meet up with artists Pauline Julier and Delcy Morelos for a 1-year research project. More info via https://lnkd.in/eywnDKtc Results will be presented at Bozar in 2026 in the form of a monumental installation for Delcy Morelos, and a Close-Up programme for Pauline Julier.

On November 18th, the annual Maecenas Dinner warmly welcomed Patrons and Partners, in the Victor Horta Hall, the beating heart of Bozar. The event was an ideal occasion to invite, unite and thank them for their generous and continued support. Love and humanity: they are found in the word philanthropy. The evening was indeed an ode to philanthropy and a heartfelt tribute to our Patrons and Partners, essential in the meaningful Bozar community that we continue to build.

A Harmonious day at Bozar: Cantania Workshop with teachers from across Belgium. 🎶 Yesterday, the Rotonde Bertouille at the Palais des Beaux-Arts came alive with energy as 27 primary school teachers from both French- and Dutch-speaking Brussels schools joined forces for the Cantania workshop. This 'Train the Trainer' session had a dual purpose: - To prepare teachers to sing the next Cantania performance. - To equip them with tools and techniques to teach the songs to their pupils in class. What is Cantania? Cantania is a unique project that culminates in a heartwarming concert at the Henry Le Bœuf Hall, where primary school pupils and their teachers perform together. Accompanied by the Belgian National Orchestra, this festive closing concert brings the magic of music to life, celebrating the dedication and creativity of both pupils and educators. Join us on Saturday 7 June 2025 for the Cantania closing concert. Let’s fill the Henry Le Bœuf Hall with applause and cheer for these incredible children and their inspiring teachers! Info via bit.ly/4173lUb This initiative would not be possible without the generous support of our partners: Candriam Institute for Sustainable Development Fondation Les Pen’s, managed by the King Baudouin Foundation SFPIM-FPIM Fondation privée Futur 21 In collaboration with L'Auditori. Thank you for championing music education and supporting future generations. #MeaningfulPartnerships #Bozarbrussels

Love is Louder ❤️ The exhibition has officially opened! The past seven days our visitors came in numerously to explore the many facets of love, its tensions, and its various forms. Navigating between the personal and the political, the exhibition zooms in on three dimensions of love: romantic love, kinship and friendship, and love in a broader social context. Remarkable! ✨ This exhibition brings together work of 80 national and international artists in a wide range of media such as painting, sculpture, video, film and multimedia installations. 🫶 In times of increasing polarization, the exhibition focuses on what connects us, because: Love is louder. Open now, until 5 Jan.'25 via https://lnkd.in/e5ujT6S3 💌 With the support of Vlaamse overheid, European Union with NextGenerationEU, FUNDACION ALMINE Y BERNARD RUIZ-PICASSO PARA EL ARTE, Embassy of Germany in Brussels , Embassy of Brazil in Brussels, Instituto Guimarães Rosa, Embassy of Spain in Brussels (SPAIN arts & culture) Permanent Representation of Estonia to the European Union.
