Throughout 2025, and to mark the centenary of the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts, Urban and visit.brussels invite you to discover the different facets of Brussels’ Art Deco world!
Thanks to the 2025 programme, you can revisit Art Deco from an urban, architectural, sociological and human perspective. In this context, the Boghossian Foundation is presenting a thematic exhibition on this key movement in Brussels.
“Echoes of Art Deco invites visitors to explore the iconic architecture of the Villa Empain, a paragon of Art Deco with an eventful past. Set against the lively musical backdrop of the era, the exhibition offers an immersive experience into the lifestyle of the Roaring Twenties.
Art Deco encompasses not only architecture but also the decorative arts. Furniture takes centre stage in a scenography that recreates the intimate atmosphere of a private residence. Drawings, ceramics, woodwork and ironwork transport visitors to a time oriented towards modernity, technical progress, and soon, the leisure society. Stained glass art, a privileged witness to stylistic evolution, is highlighted by an exceptional collection of 25 original pieces.”
- On view at the Villa Empain until 25 May 2025
- Curators: Louma Salamé, Anne-Claire Duperrier
