V/MSP Gallery was founded by Olaf Pradhan and Sofie Verbrugghen and is located in Brussels. Rather than following a certain artistic approach or a specific school, the focus is on artistic and technical quality of the works. This also includes their conceptual framework.
The gallery pursues an interdisciplinary approach and although one of the tasks of a gallerist is to monitor current trends and developments in contemporary art, it is the philosophy of the gallery to analyse those developments in a wider historical context. Strong artistic expression should be able to withhold critical analysis and prove itself through the changes of time.

S.M.A.K.
Dynamic and unconventional. This describes both Ghent and the Museum of Contemporary Art (S.M.A.K.). Its permanent collection of first-rate Belgian and international works is presented in constant interaction with original and often provocative exhibitions. Keeping a finger on the pulse. But sometimes on the sore points too. You can gently recover from all these impressions in the adjacent Citadel Park.
Salon Blanc
Salon blanc is op een avond in 2007 ontstaan als een onafhankelijk initiatief van Els Wuyts en Yves Velter waarbij een deel van hun woonhuis tijdelijk veranderd wordt in een kleinschalige tentoonstellingsruimte. De duur ervan wordt beperkt tot één moment waardoor het een feestelijk karakter met een particulier accent krijgt. De bedoeling is dat er meermaals korte toonmomenten worden georganiseerd, zonder te verdwijnen in een bepaalde regelmaat. Het is een hedendaagse verwijzing naar de saloncultuur van weleer waarbij er een gelegenheid wordt gecreëerd om bij te praten, uit te wisselen, te tonen en te kijken.

croxhapox
CROXHAPOX is an experimental art house and an open working place for contemporary art, situated in Ghent, Belgium. It was created in 1990 by Hans van Heirseele and Guido De Bruyn. Intended as a small non-commercial exhibition room, CROXHAPOX evolved through the years towards a multidisciplinary entity with a particular vision on content and a diversified exhibition policy. Today, CROXHAPOX receives any form of contemporary art and offers a working space for music, film, poetry and art criticism. In doing so, CROXHAPOX focuses not only on young or less reputed artists but also aimes at throwing some light on the importance of artistic research and content. In this way CROXHAPOX offers a large potential for experimenting.
CROXHAPOX has no commercial activities, nor does it represent any artists, art disciplines or genres, and for this reason is not to be considered a gallery.

Vincent van Goghhuis
The Vincent van GoghHuis is a vibrant art centre situated in the birthplace of one of the most famous artists from history. It is not a museum in the classical sense of the word, but it provides for active experiences, for art lovers as well as for tourists. A stimulating presentation on the life and work of Vincent van Gogh is shown to the public. The permanent presentation ‘Vincent van Gogh – The roots of a master’ stands alone, but is also a prelude to the temporary exhibtions. The focus of those exhibitions is put on those artists from the 20th and 21st century who have been and still are inspired by Vincent van Gogh.
Jan Colle Galerij
Een voormalige houtdroogplaats uit de jaren 30 werd verbouwd door architect Johan De Coker tot een galerij voor hedendaagse kunst. Achter de smalle gevel ontpopt zich een indrukwekkend pakhuis.
De architectuur, welke totaal doorluchtend was (windcirculatie nodig om het hout te drogen), werd wind- en regendicht gemaakt met grote plastiek vliezen.
Het gebouw werd door de minimale, hedendaagse ingreep volledig gerespecteerd.
De tentoonstellingen zijn gewijd aan hedendaagse kunst, zonder uitzondering van enige uitdrukkingsvorm.
