LocusLux

If art is knowledge, should knowledge also be art?

This is the question raised by Locuslux Gallery with current exhibition of Pascal Danz. This exhibition is a prelude to a project on painting in collaboration with museums.

A painter can draw upon a source in which anything is possible: every imaginable image, all imaginable illusions, in an all-encompassing way. Painting probably began here by representing our lives as ideally as possible.

With Danz's work one can feel an affinity the truth of our lives as for danz there's no question of idealism of romanticism. In his work, humanity is not in tune with its environnement. The viewers look and are immersed in light, not the romantic light but the light of downfall, nuclear explosions and total destruction.

LocusLux Gallery enters its second year considering the painting as a mainstay in its artistic direction and as a proeminant feature of the gallery.

LocusLux also edit a magazine available at the gallery which is located rue du vieux Marché aux Grains 1000 Brussels.

Brussel’s finest dj’s DanceMachine (High Needs Low) and Jonatan (Lift Your Head Up) will transform the warm up and closing acts in a perfect expedition take off and landing.

High Needs Low parties will bring you to a space dimension where video projections, photography and specific lightning work are melting together to create a unique atmosphere as they consider the music, the aesthetical work, and the atmosphere in every detail.

High Needs Low takes place around every 3 months at Congres Station, Boulevard Pacheco in Brussels, close to Metro Botanique.

Palace Hotel Brussels
November 2009

A short walk around Rogier makes Brussels architecture contrast even more impressive. Here financial institutions behind a typical Art Nouveau hotel.

Dating back to 1908, Le Palace has a long and distinguished history. The architect turned to the Art Nouveau lines and curls of Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) for inspiration, echoing Le Palace’s (1908) original turn-of-the-century style.
