BE PART - Platform voor actuele kunst
Be Part is a center for contemporary visual art in Waregem, near Kortrijk. The key words here are: creation, research, meeting and presentation. Every year, three to four exhibitions take place. With Belgian and international artists. In addition, Be-Part also supports young, local artists, alternating with international ones, in their thinking and production process. That is why a studio was set up where the artist-in-residence works and stays.
When entering the parking lot of the classic 1947 villa, you wouldn't think the other side of the building went through an architectural transformation. The different exhibition rooms - one of which is round - feel modern and in support of the work. We were impressed with the art that was on display when we visited. They know what to curate. Although it changes, we saw some impressive works by renowned Belgian masters Tuymans, Borremans and Delvoye. So hopefully you are as lucky when you visit as we were.
The temporary exhibitions at Be Part are usually free. Check out their website for what's up currently.
