We are pleased to announce that Art Antwerp & Art Brussels have successfully qualified as Active Members for 2025-26 with Gallery Climate Coalition - GCC 💚

To achieve Active status we had to demonstrate that our organisation had implemented environmentally responsible best practice in line with GCC guidance. Active Membership is not a certification of sustainability nor a claim that we are doing things perfectly. We’re all doing our best to assess, report and reduce our impact, setting targets in line with science, taking any actions we can and working out other solutions as we go.

We encourage all of our peers and colleagues to visit the GCC website to learn more about the initiative and how to get involved >> https://galleryclimatecoalition.org/

KickCancer Foundation breaks records at Art Brussels 💛

During this year’s edition of Art Brussels, The KickCancer Collection raised more than €100,000 in support of children with cancer through a charity sale of anonymously presented artworks curated by Albert Baronian.

With 251 artworks sold at €400 each, this fourth edition reached a new record, surpassing last year’s result and once again demonstrating the incredible generosity of the contemporary art community.

All proceeds from The KickCancer Collection will support KickCancer’s mission to fund innovative research into better treatments for children with cancer.

“The dedication and generosity of artists, galleries, and buyers is truly heartwarming. Thanks to them, The KickCancer Collection had a record-breaking edition, and that makes me incredibly happy and grateful. Art has the power to connect, inspire, and change lives.”
— Delphine Heenen, founder of KickCancer

A heartfelt thank you to all participating artists, galleries, collectors, and visitors who made this outstanding result possible ✨

From concept to completion 🎬 Step behind the scenes of the Art Brussels 2026 entrance commission ✨

For this edition, Belgian artist Natasja Mabesoone reimagined the fair’s threshold with “Cher mouths Mary, Mary mouths Cher”, a site-specific installation that transformed Art Brussels entrance into a striking, immersive passage.

In this video, Art Brussels Managing Director Nele Verhaeren reflects on the importance of inviting an artist to shape visitors’ first impressions of the fair and explains the choice of Mabesoone. The artist, in turn, offers insights into how the project was brought to life and how visitors responded to the the work once it was unveiled.
