The Vanhaerents Art Collection is a collection of contemporary art located in a former industrial building in the Dansaert district in the heart of Brussels.
The second collection presentation Sympathy for the Devil is now on show.
For this second group exhibition in the Vanhaerents Art Collection curators Walter Vanhaerents and Pierre-Olivier Rollin have again chosen the title of a rock song.
Sympathy for the Devil is the first track on the Rolling Stones album Beggars Banquet. Each of the selected art works are linked in one way or the other to prominent ideas in the song.
Forty years after Federico Fellini’s polemic film interpretation of Satyricon (1969) by the Roman writer Gaius Petronius Arbiter, AES+F also revisits this classical literary work in their piece The Feast of Trimalchio (2009).
