Take part in the Heritage Challenge and support the restoration of the Museum van Buuren

For several years now, the Royal Institute for Artistic Heritage (KIK-IRPA) has been organizing the HERITAGE CHALLENGE, an initiative aimed at preserving and restoring exceptional Belgian heritage treasures. For the 2024 edition, the winner will benefit from the services of KIK-IRPA, worth 25,000 euros, thanks to the support of the National Lottery. This year, among the 7 masterpieces in competition is the van Buuren Museum and Gardens, a veritable jewel of Art Deco.

We were honored to welcome the team from the RTBF program “Les Ambassadeurs” for an immersive dive into the heart of Art Deco at the Musée & Jardins van Buuren. This program is a great opportunity to discover or rediscover the story of David and Alice van Buuren, as well as the architectural and artistic treasures that make this place unique.

Replay the show and be inspired by the timeless elegance of the Musée van Buuren.

The van Buuren Museum & Gardens is pleased to present an exhibition dedicated to Belgian artist Jan Vercruysse, which will run from September 6 to November 17 at the van Buuren Museum in Brussels. This exhibition highlights two major series of Vercruysse’s work: Labyrinth and Pleasure Garden and Tombeaux.

The van Buuren Museum, with its unique architectural setting and famous labyrinth and garden, offers a direct parallel with Vercruysse’s Labyrinth & Pleasure Gardens series. The integration of these historical elements with the artist’s works highlights a shared exploration of playful and contemplative spaces, allowing visitors to appreciate the connections between the artist’s vision and the museum’s setting.
