Shopping monument
Avenue Emile De Mot, Brussels Student prank or post-capitalist consumer society critique ? Sculptures by Thomas Vinçotte are more often targeted by interventionists actions,such as his sculpture of Leopold II. This sculpture of a Horse taming boy is less obvious in its connection to representing Belgiums colonial history. more…

All together now: Basement covers
Here are some images of improvised repairs, alterations to covers of coal cellars that are no longer in use. Some quite decorative ones such as the one above, others are more pragmatic. The basements that were used back in the days to stock coals in general now serve some other function. It used to be […] more…
Don’t piss on my mailbox
Quai du commerce, 1000 Bxssls I suppose most guys would interpret this stainless steel triangle as a desperate sign to please not pee in that corner, but apart from blocking completely the lower letterbox, what does the triangle actually do ? Technically speaking it is still very possible to pee in that corner I guess […] more…

Bed gate extension
Two notable additions to the gate around the claimed space in Rue Vanbogaerde: An added side bar connects the two sides: it’s beginning to become a fenced of mini garden. Also: new obstacle are added to prevent cars from parking into the gate. Previous posts about the bed gate are here: http://westenberg.constantvzw.org/?p=1860 more…

Scratch & peek
The glass wall of the corridor that spans the central hall of the Bozar museum in Brussels is temporarily blocked with grey self adhesive plastic. A scratched hole in the plastic allows a view on the lower storey. Is this expression of spatial curiosity intended as a critical intervention addressing problematics of representation of female […] more…

Yellow Black White
Rue d’Andenne, 1060 Saint-Gilles A door with a rather atypical colour scheme. Now that the world cup soccer is played in Brazil and flags of many colours fly in the streets of Brussels, i can’t help wondering of this could be a way to express sympathy to a certain country ? But black yellow and […] more…

Mosaic floor
One of my favorite Brussels musea is the Cinquantenaire Museum. It houses an amazing collection of historic items, ranging from medieval silverware, gothic sculptures and Flemish tapestries to 19th and 20th century furniture and interior design. The big internal square on the groundfloor in the history wing deserves a place in the collection of its […] more…

Giant exhaust
Metro Louiza, 1050 Brussels Crazy curled up pipe connected to the airconditioning system of the Leonidas chocolate shop in metrostation Louise. Less space consuming but equally weird alternatives could have been to cut the exhaust through the window pane such as in this shop in Saint-Gilles, or to lift up the pipe above head level […] more…
New door
Wapenstilstandstraat / Rue de l’armistice, 1081 Koekelberg Not sure if the door is newly placed, because the ‘shitscraper’ left next to the stone steps indicates there has always been a door on this place in the wall. Or if there has been a shutter in front of it that has been removed recently. In any […] more…
