Urban(e)(istiques) Anomalie(ë)n Bru(x)(ss)el(le)(s): Photoblog on Brussels’ public anomalies

http://westenberg.constantvzw.org/

A visual journey through particularities of public spaces in Brussels.

Artist Peter Westenberg publishes observations of Brussels in the weblog Urban(e)(istiques) Anomalie(ën)(s) Bru(x)(ss)el(le)(s). The photo’s in this blog portray a city in permanent search for visual identity; in which representations of bodies in monuments and street advertising are contested by history and actions of citizens, a city in which self-regulation and inventiveness help construct an unpredictable and ever changing environment.

The major part of the entries are made by one person but the category Intake Center A.U.B. contain materials sent in by guest writers.

In 2018, the wall in Rue Vanderdussen was decorated with an abundance of sea shells. Now three years later, not much is left of it.
