Art Nouveau Poetry Act ll

Urban and the LAB·AN x Hôtel van Eetvelde are pleased to invite you to this exceptional performance. 

During their residency at the LAB·AN, organised as part of the ‘Art Nouveau Brussels 2023’ programme, seven poets have been reflecting on how to put some words on the relationship between Art Nouveau and History in the contemporary context.

It is now time for these seven talented Belgian poets to present their work to the public.

In the heart of the Hôtel van Eetvelde, surrounded by the music of Teuk Henri and the voice of Soetkin Elbers, the artists invite you to discover the power of their texts and their reflections during an exceptional evening.

  • Avery Bertrand Iradukunda
  • Marie Darah
  • Alex Deforce
  • Jan Ducheyne
  • Jessy James LaFleur
  • Lisette Lombé
  • Laurence Vielle
