De Canvas collectie - La collection RTBF 2010 #BOZAR

Mixing amateur and professional artists might seem like an impossible task. The VRTs Canvas television channel, however, boldly took up the challenge when, in early 2008, in cooperation with the Flemish visual arts sector, it issued an appeal to all creative folk, both the well-known and the unknown. They were asked to help produce a snapshot of todays art. A total of 4,500 candidates responded; the works of 250 of these were approved by a demanding jury and presented in an exhibition that attracted 15,000 visitors interested in getting an idea of the diversity and creativity of art in todays Flanders. The idea caught on the other side of Belgiums linguistic divide and the French-language RTBF is now involved in the 2010 edition: the new, Belgium-wide project now includes a competition, television programmes and, already, a retrospective. Maybe like Jan Hoet last year the Walloon Laurent Busine will find himself saying: It was what I had always dreamed of.
