Beaufort Art Triennial 2018
Beaufort Art Triennial by the Sea
Beaufort is a triennial art project that extends along the entire Belgian coastline. It is a project, launched in 2003, in which the sea often plays the main role. In Beaufort 2018, the sea will be illuminated as a place that is both uncontrollable but at the same time links us to the rest of the world. Every participating artist comes from a country that borders on the sea. An underlying theme of this edition is the role of permanent monuments. How do they lend meaning to a place? How are they interpreted by local residents? And to what extent is the power of their message shaped by the Zeitgeist?
