The exhibition Symbolism in Flanders focuses on the first generation of artists from the picturesque artist village of Sint-Martens-Latem. Three important artists take the stage: sculptor Georg Minne, landscape specialist Valerius De Saedeleer and Gustave Van de Woestyne, known for his finely drawn, powerful peasant heads. The artworks of these talented masters express their urge to escape the modern, busy city and return to nature, origin and inner peace.
