Dear Friends,

After a colourful season, it’s harvest time… The Chagall exhibition attracted over 150,000 visitors, a well deserved success! More than 5,000 copies of the “Fables de La Fontaine” illustrated by the artist were sold during the exhibition. And the Friends can boast without blushing of having increased the number of members by more than 10%. Congratulations to the 60 volunteers working both at the welcome desk and in the office for achieving such a great job! In September, we would like to invite you to... 2050! The world of today and tomorrow illustrated through 8 themes and more than 70 contemporary artists. Innovative and fascinating! (p 6-9) By browsing through the 32 pages of the 4th edition of the Friends Booklet, you will discover no less than 8 activities “More For Friends” (p 18-19) and 11 trips and excursions (p 20-25), available to you between September 2015 and March 2016. The more we are, the greater our support to the Museums (p 26-27). Think about offering a membership card to your friends as a lasting gift! Thank you to our 2,935 Friends and our 103 patron members (p 28-29) for your loyalty and your vital support in times of political uncertainty in cultural matters.

Entrance through the : Place Royale / Koningsplein 1, 1000 Brussels 5 2050. A Brief History of the Future When contemporary art takes you to 2050!

The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium and the Louvre present a new and innovative project inspired by Jacques Attali’s book “A Brief History of the Future”. It takes the form of two independent but complementary exhibitions around the same questioning of the future. The Louvre with a look at the past and Brussels with a prospective approach, illustrate the great dynamics that span and animate humanity, from its origins to 2050. According to Jacques Attali, human civilization can be told as the succession of three major political orders: a religious order, a military and a mercantile order, the latter still prevailing today. The mercantile order speaks the language of Money and is organized around a single centre, a core which gathers a creative society characterized by an appetite for newness and a passion for discovery. Until today the market order has had 9 successive stages. You can label them each either by the name of their core city (Bruges, Venice, Antwerp, Genoa, Amsterdam, London, Boston, New York, Los Angeles) or by the technology extending their merchandise field (stern rudder, caravel, printing, accounting, boat flute, steam engine, internal combustion engine, electric motor, microprocessor). Moreover, according to Attali, the future will take place in five waves: the relative decline of the American Empire, the emergence of a polycentric world, a “super empire”, a “super conflict” and finally a “super democracy”. The exhibition in Brussels begins with the ninth core – the city of Los Angeles, near the Pacific Ocean, and microprocessors. Eight themes will be developed: Los Angeles, polycentrism, 6 2016 11.09 2015 > 24.01

They will be discussed and illustrated by works of internationally renowned contemporary artists: Sugimoto, Boetti, Francis Alÿs Louise Bourgeois, On Kawara, Marie-Jo Lafontaine, Hans Op de Beeck, Lachapelle... In total nearly 70 artists will deliver to you their visions of the present and of the future of the planet. Through these works that illustrate the major issues of society, the visitors are invited to reflect on the future they want to shape.

Many activities are organized around the exhibition: Tuesday conferences, meetings with artists at the Museum Brasserie on Saturdays at 3:30 pm…

Andres Serrano, born in New York in 1950, is one of the great iconic artists of contemporary photography and is the guest of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium where a large retrospective will be devoted to his work in March 2016. From 28 February to 10 March 2015, Andres Serrano drove the streets of Brussels and produced a series of photographs of homeless people. This is similar to what he did in New York in 2014 and we’ve asked him to describe his work in Brussels: “I always ask people if they agree to be photographed, I pay them a little, it’s a working relationship, the same as if I was working with other models. Even if they sleep, they know that I photograph them.” “In Brussels, the situation is more extreme than in New York, some people live in cardboard boxes in the subway, there are people from very different backgrounds, some almost adopt an actor’s behavior”. Through his photographs, Andres Serrano shows us the lives of those we do not see or do not want to see. On several occasions, we had the chance to meet this artist who has a very original view of the world. Didn’t he tell us, for example, that his best audience is children and people “who understand nothing about art” – they don’t assume and they look at a work without prejudice. The photographs “Denizens of Brussels” will be presented in some metro stations and streets of Brussels, during the retrospective Andres Serrano taking place in March 2016.

The Friends met Jennifer Beauloye, Doctor of Art History, postdoctoral researcher in museology and new technologies, project manager for the Bruegel Box, co-curator of the exhibition “2050 A Brief History of the Future”. We asked her about the Museum of tomorrow. If the museums missions remain the same, to preserve, disseminate and educate, the tools are changing. New tech- nologies facilitate interaction between the artworks and the public. With smartphones and geolocation, it will become easier to find your way around the museum. Image recognition, for example, could provide a more comprehensive explanation on a painting and one could imagine that a guidance system (iBeacon...) could warn the visitors when they approach a major work in the museum. Visitors will deepen their knowledge of one or several works by immersing themselves in very detailed projections of these; they will be placed at the heart of an artwork and will be able to scrutinize each element of its composition. New technologies support scientific research and enable us to engage directly with the audience on an interactive basis. Moreover, they are being put at the service of art. Indeed, conditions for the storage and exhibition of artworks have become so demanding that it is no longer possible to transport paintings which are too fragile, and that is where the new technologies will enable a broader audience to approach the works in a different way. By autumn 2015, the Bruegel Box (Boël room) and the exhibition “2050 A Brief History of the Future” will give us a preview of what the Museum of tomorrow could be. aphne, 1681. pollo Chasing D Carlo Maratta, A Oil on canvas 22,1 x 224 cm. © RMFAB.

Fashion as a mirror of society

16 Partnership between the Museum Fin-de-Siècle and the Museum of Costume and Lace Being and Appearing

A number of activities related to the theme of fashion and appearance are planned for this year. These activities will help you to discover or rediscover two Museums, through guided tours, workshops, family Museums… What do the appearance and the dress tell us about a person and his time? Getting dressed is a basic requirement, but clothes are also an important nonverbal way of communicating. Appearances can sometimes be misleading; nevertheless, it does reveal the true face of a society. Through these visits, the crinolines, bustle dresses, balayeuses… will have no more secrets for you!

The Friends help the Museums

The Friends support the Museums by managing the nearly 100 volunteers who assist the museums in a wide range of activities:

• welcoming the visitors in the lobby; • serving in the museums shops; • managing the archives; • supporting the Educateam activities; • operating the library; • helping in the Digital museum; • translating into Dutch and English; • managing the Friends’ back office. 26 A huge thank you to all the volunteers!

In 2015, the Friends fund the development of the Gao Xingjian room and the editing and printing of the guidebook Museum in a nutshell – Old Masters. They also participate in the purchase of a work by the artist David Altjmed. The Boël Fund finances the project Free Guides: free guided tours for all, in dialogue with today’s world. In 2014 and 2013, the Friends acquired for the Museum the work by Marcel Broodthaers “Magritte”, and funded the publishing and printing of the guidebook Museum in a nutshell – Fin-de-Siècle. They also funded the lighting of Jan Fabre’s work in the royal staircase.

All these projects, dear Friends, can only be achieved thanks to your support!

We need you more than ever!
