Spring and Summer is the perfect time for an art trip. Right now, we are working on a new issue of Contemporary Lyn in print, so I wanted to check out what is happening in different cities. The purpose is, however, not only to see interesting art exhibitions but also to network, meet the artists in person, scan the local art scene and find new inspirations. Artists’ studios are always on my list. There are fascinating places. Studio visits provide a personal connection and you can talk directly to an artist about his latest works. During my latest stay in Brussels, I visited three artists’ studios – Marcin Dudek and Amélie Bouvier – Brussels-based artists, in their brand-new studio, located very close to Parc Roi Baudouin. Then, I decided to hang out in Radek Szlaga’s studio to see some of his latest paintings in person instead of only discussing them.
