Near Vleurgat and the Rivoli Galleries, one can discover local emerging talents at places like Plagiarama, Meesen de Clercq and Ir\u00e8ne Laub, or walk into Xavier Hufkens and Almine Rech to admire world renowned artists. These spaces are open to everyone that wants to marvel at artworks they know and to discover their next favourite pieces.<\/p>\n

On the Ch\u00e2telain Square, a former sports car factory from the early 1900s, which became a design school in the 70s and a popular nightclub in the 80s, is now home to the Hangar Photo Art Center, a cultural centre that focuses on photography in all its forms. A few streets further, in the former royal skating rink, La Patinoire Royale – Galerie Val\u00e9rie Bach, presents Belgian and international visual artists in an exceptional architectural environment that is a testimony to the past of the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n
