Alternate Worlds

The cultural exhibition Alternate Worlds commissioned by FACE B asbl consists of two parts:

  • a selection of pieces of art by 5 artists in residence at the Ateliers Indigo that supports artists with disabilities, active in its plastic arts, stage and music workshops. The association provides them with a team of qualified artists to accompany and train them, in a favourable space to the development of their practice. It aims to improve their working conditions and promote their creations.

  • a selection of 3 artists from the Centre d'Art Brut et Contemporain, la « S » grand Atelier. The "S" grand Atelier, a renowned Belgian Centre d'Art Brut et Contemporain, brings together artists with mental disabilities to share their talents in workshops led by art professionals. "One of the objectives of the "S" is to bring raw practices out of isolation by leading to artistic and human encounters. During the ALTERconference, you will have the pleasure to discover the works of Sarah Albert, Irène Gérard and Dominique Theate. 

  • A selection of works from the Art et Marges Museum. Located in the heart of Brussels, the Art et Marges Museum, a museum of outsider art, questions art and its boundaries. Its collection was built up in the mid-1980s by self-taught artists, artistic workshops for mentally disabled people and psychiatric institutions. It now comprises more than 4000 international works produced outside the mainstream of the art world. Its temporary exhibitions, three a year, bring together artists from both sides of the margin, questioning the boundaries of art and its very definition

     

FACE B

FACE B, a non-profit organisation co-founded by Assal Sharifrazi, imagines hybrid creative spaces accessible to all audiences, blurring the boundaries between genres. From the conception to the realisation of varied and meaningful projects, FACE B shapes new open spaces connected to the city. FACE B traditionally refers to one side of a vinyl. It is the side where nothing is expected and everything is possible. It is the side where the artist can reveal another facet of his or her creativity, the one that decompartmentalize our society and leaves room for our collective imaginations.
