ADVERTISEMENTBrussels Arts Centre Bozar is highlighting the Belgian surrealist scene with an exhibition called "Histoire de ne pas rire", while "Imagine" at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts is bringing together international surrealists.
The exhibitions are in the context of the Belgian presidency of the Council of the European Union.
Hadja Lahbib, Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs tweeted that the exhibitions are "an opportunity to discover major works that will fire our imagination and challenge our perceptions."
The aim is to illustrate the importance of the dream and of intuition in the creative process.
