Kamrooz Aram, Collection Famille Servais
Installation view at BPS22, Belguim, 2016
The opening show of the BPS22, The Worlds Turned Upside Down, is a large collection of contemporary artworks that all borrowed some elements to popular and folk cultures. Folk traditions, ancestral customs, ancient legends and handiwork have always inspired artists of every era. Today's visual artists do not stray from that traditional path, regardless of their preferred medium (painting, sculpture, installation, video, photography, etc.) Forty or so exceptional works by artists from all around the globe are assembled at the BPS22, in some cases showed for the first time in Europe.
