Sense & Nonsense

Sense & Nonsense is an adventure in which Belgian art and artists provide the inspiration. The exhibition hopes to explore the mischievous nature of Belgian art through the collision of different languages: primarily the language of the picture with the language of words. British artists have been invited to appear alongside their Belgian neighbours to generate a dialogue of shared ideas and fortuitous encounters.

The exhibition is curated by Gerry Smith.

With thanks to the Arts Council Collection, Hayward Gallery, London; Galerie Annie Gentils, Antwerp; Michael Novy and Maria Gilissen, Brussels.
