BOZAR, your official companion to maximise your BOZAR experience at the Centre for Fine Arts in Brussels.
Creativity, quality, and artistic diversity have been at the heart of the Centres mission since its foundation. But for art not to be something abstract and distant, for it to be truly part of the "culture" of a society – and particularly in a city as variegated and international as Brussels – the public must be able to experience it in a way that is both natural and lively. Art and people must find and recognise each other, must interact with and enrich each other. For the greater happiness of all.
Our commitment, accordingly, is not only to the provision of a range of artistic activities, but also to achieving a "total experience". Whether with friends, as a family, alone, as a couple, in a group, or with a class, whether young or old, fans of video or of string quartets, you are all invited to feel, to breathe, to view and to check out the atmosphere of the Centre for Fine Arts. To let yourselves be seduced by the strange beauty of a building that is at once imposing and intimate. To appreciate, day after day, the remarkable quality of the events programmed here. To discover that, when it comes to art, "total experiences" are the most intense and the most precious, that they cannot be repeated, that they represent, each time, a unique experience...
