BRUEGEL’S EYE: reconstructing the landscape

7 April until 31 October 2019, Dilbeek near Brussels

2019 is the 450th anniversary of the death of Pieter Bruegel the Elder. The world-famous painter lived in Brussels and visited the Pajottenland to find inspiration. Dilbeek is celebrating this with an open-air exhibition featuring works by internationally renowned artists and designers.

The open-air exhibition in the Pajottenland will catapult Bruegel into the 21st century. Via a walking route, you can see through the eyes of the painter as he produced his impressive landscape paintings. Bruegel painted the chapel of Sint-Anna-Pede and the watermill of Sint-Gertrudis-Pede. These monuments form the starting and resting point for a walk of around 7 km along 15 installations.
