In Situ Gallery

Galerie In Situ opened in 1992 in Aalst (Belgium). The name "In Situ" was chosen because it means 'built in relation to its surrounding, taking in a topological position.' The term has also frequently been used since the mid-eighties to describe works of art that are made specifically for or in a particular space or environment. Since we really want to promote young art, we're always looking for possibilities to network with other galleries and initiatives. The artists we work with live mainly in Europe. We also organize extra-muros exhibitions and projects, in private and in public spaces. At first, we did mostly shows with artists from Eastern Europe, followed by thematical exhibitions with a group of young international artists. Around 1992 the gallery started also with new media such as video, interactive work and sound-installations. Since 1995 the gallery participates on a regular basis in international art fairs. Focus is on cross-overs between media and disciplines: painting with links to science and new technology, installations with connections in street-culture, mass-media and entertainment. Mainly artists that are active with several media. CLICK THE PICTURE! Enjoy!
