Is the city still a dream? - PBF03 /
Vincent Peal
16 November to 20 December 2018
Vincent Peal directs a realistic, sensitive gaze, capturing all the contrasts of the city and its ups and downs.
Through his project Brussels Open City, Vincent Peal gives us a photo-reportage devoted to the very heart of Brussels, focusing on what makes it so rich: its inhabitants. The fact that he has spent many years putting down roots in the Belgian capital, and more specifically in the working-class Marolles neighbourhood, makes him well placed to produce a series of photographs celebrating a cosmopolitan, colourful population of outsiders. These different portraits describe the human being in all his sensitivity, his poetry, his fragility, his dramas, his absurdity and his everyday emotions.
