Horta Inside Out

An array of Brussels’ cultural institutions have teamed up to provide the public with an opportunity to (re)discover Horta’s Art Nouveau and Art Deco delights in 2018, via a huge selection of special exhibitions, guided tours, educational activities, organised activities and much more. “Horta is considered one of the most important names in Art Nouveau architecture, not just in Europe, but internationally too,” begins visit.brussels’ Tineke De Waele. “He was hugely important to Brussels and it was about time a programme was organised to celebrate him!” This month’s Brussels Art Nouveau and Art Deco Festival (BANAD), taking place from 10 – 25 March, has the theme Hidden treasures and focus on Victor Horta. Meanwhile, exhibition aficionados will be spoilt for choice by this year’s Hortainspired cultural agenda.
