Join us for the opening night to start off three months celebrating living and historical women artists. The Nine’s “From MUSE to ARTIST” exhibition puts community arts and women artists in the spotlight, celebrating the work being done locally, immediately and in live performances in this field.
The top two rooms of The Nine are transformed into a creative hub for women with art made by women. One room reveals a carefully curated collection of historical women artists’ original works and modern interpretations that play with them, by living artist Tamar Levi. The second room reveals Levi’s own current artworks in progress: a series of contemporary paintings that document the raising of her daughter, the seasons of their life, through the seasons of Parc du Cinquantenaire.
Having grown up in Alaska, Tamar Levi is now a local artist who walks, sketches and paints Belgium’s Parc du Cinquantenaire, a local park, just around the corner from The Nine itself. This award-winning artist has spent ten years walking in love, alone, with friends, with family, pregnant, in labor, with a pram, with daughter, with her dog, every day applying an artist’s eye to Brussels’ celebratory park. Her highly collectible artworks, published books and curatorial projects have won awards and international media attention for their talent and virtuosity, top valued by art investors, art festivals and even live performances of her continuous line illustrations funded by Belgium’s théâtre jeune public du Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles.
