Legal deposit: D/2019/6860/017 HERITAGE DAYS ⁄ 3 Foreword This year, Heritage Days in the Brussels-Capital Region are dedicated to the theme of “A place for art”. With countless stages, cinemas, concert halls, theatres, museums, artist work- shops and residencies, academies, the homes of collectors and corporate col- lections, Brussels is filled with “places for art”, some listed, others not, familiar to enthusiasts but often less well-known to the general public. From creative places to places for exhibitions, as well as places of teaching, the 2019 selection is testament to the richness and diversity of heritage in Brussels. The hands-on side of things has not been forgotten either, with almost one hun- dred activities available to complement the tours. Walking and bicycle tours, bus excursions and exhibitions will take you throughout the region. From sculptures in parks and public spaces to comic strip frescos and street art, you will see that art is everywhere in the city. A number of projects have also been organised with the involvement of the city’s citizens under the label “Heritage is us!”, continuing the momentum created in 2018 during the European Year of Cultural Heritage. This particularly rich and varied programme could not have been put together without the enthusiasm and creative spirit of the managers of the venues and the associations, municipal administrations and professionals who all helped to make it possible. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of these people who play such a vital role in the preservation and promotion of heritage. Happy exploring!

  • 2017-12-12 Dossier De Presse Horta EN
    Horta inside out: A year dedicated to this architectural genius One of the greatest architects of his generation, Victor Horta, certainly left his mark on Brussels. From the Horta House to the Hôtel Tassel and the Horta-Lambeaux Pavilion, it was about time we paid tribute to this master of Art Nouveau by dedicating a whole year to his work and creative genius. Victor Horta moved to Brussels in 1881 and went to the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. His teacher, Alphonse Balat (the architect behind the Royal Greenhouses of Laeken), saw his potential and took him on as an assistant. Very quickly, he became fascinated by curves, light and steel. He soon joined the inner circle of the Masonic lodge that would launch his career. The Autrique House was built in 1893, followed closely by the wonderful Hôtel Tassel. This period was the start of a long series of showpieces which dotted Brussels with buildings with innovative spaces and bright skylights. Horta, one of the earliest instigators, heralded the modern movement of Art Nouveau architecture. The stylistic revolution represented by these works is characterised by their open plan, diffusion and transformation of light throughout the construction, the creation of a decor that brilliantly illustrates the curved lines of decoration embracing the structure of the building, the use of new materials (steel and glass), and the introduction of modern technical utilities. Through the rational use of the metallic structures, often visible or subtly dissimulated, Victor Horta conceived flexible, light and airy living areas, directly adapted to the personality of their inhabitants.

  • Petrification’ of Brussels Architecture an Attempted Explanation Between Construction Methods, Supply of Building Materials and Social Context (13Th-17Th Centuries)
    ‘Petrification’ of Brussels architecture An attempted explanation between construction methods, supply of building materials and social context (13th-17th centuries) Paulo CHARRUADAS 1 | Philippe SOSNOWSKA 2 1 Centre de Recherches en Archéologie et Patrimoine, Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB)-Fonds National de la Recherche scientifique (F.R.S.-FNRS), Belgium | 2 Centre de Recherches en Archéologie et Patrimoine, Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB), Belgium Abstract : Except for religious and aristocratic buildings, most constructions and houses in the initial stages of the former European cities and towns were mainly made of cob and timber. The gradual and complex transformation into stone and brick constructions – the so-called ‘petrification’ – is one of the most important processes within cities and towns. To date, however, this phenomenon has been little studied by historians and archaeologists. How these architectural transformations and their chronology took place is still a matter of conjecture. ‘Petrification’ is nonetheless a significant process: it affects the general aspect of the cities and towns, reflecting an obvious change in the landscape and the evolution in the employed building materials. From a social viewpoint, ‘petrification’ is associated with the way in which houses are interconnected and thus is a reflection of town politics as well as the relationships between neighborhoods. The ‘petrification’ process has also important implications in the organization of urban supplies of building materials. The relationship
