Heute teilte die Art Brussels mit, dass Katarina Gregos ihre künstlerische Leitung der Art Brussels aufgibt. Sie war 2012 berufen worden und möchte jetzt wieder ihre volle Zeit als Kuratorin arbeiten. Die kommende 34. Art Brussels (22..-24.4.) wird Katarina Gregos noch leiten, aber dann möchte sie wieder „focus on what I love most: working with artists and making exhibitions. Art Brussels is now at a point where its solid history of 48 years and its reputation as a discovery far have been consolidated, and with the move to the new space at Tour & Taxis as well as its continue reneawal, it can look forward to an exciting future“, wird sie in der Pressemitteilung zitiert.
Und Anne Vierstraete, Managing Director Art Brussels, sagt dazu laut Pressemeldung: ‘As a specialist in contemporary art, Katerina has nourished the fair with her extensive knowledge, expertise and international network. Her contribution has resulted in a very interesting evolution for Art Brussels, confirming and consolidating its specificity as a discovery fair, which we will build on through the continuation of the fair’s strong curatorial profile over the coming years. In light of this, it is very probable that we will collaborate with Katerina as a curator on special projects in the future.’
