Travel Tip: Art and Archaeology in Belgium Wim Delvoye: Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door
Wim Delvoye: Tour, 2010
Wim Delvoye: Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door BELGIUM BRUSSELS • Palais des Beaux-Arts • Ongoing
Belgian artist Wim Delvoye presents monumental cathedrals in metal, along with crooked Christs, obscene stained-glass windows, and steel towers. The intrusion of the religious into his world comes across as the return of the repressed, metamorphosed by a craftsman’s skill. Delvoye's laser-outlined Gothic tower on the Centre’s roof will echo its counterpart on the Brussels Town Hall.
