Art Coasting |
Finally on the road! To the Belgium coast! |
|
Brugge Everywhere there is something to explore, no matter which direction... More...? |
The Netherlands are reached on the first day. Even in my direction calm ways can be found. They go through woods or follow canals...
On the second day the border of Belgium is passed. |
|
Quite soon Antwerpen will be crossed in search of an tunnel for cyclists,
to get in style by elevator(!) to the other side of the Schelde river. Fortunately I've had been in Antwerp before, so I knew about this unusual kind of crossing a river. |
De Panne Antony Gormley: Another Place More...? |
|
Koksijde-Oostduinkerke Anne & Patrick Poirier: Acqua Scivolo More...? |
The medieval charme of
Brugge keeps me for a day.
The old town offers so much to see, buildings, bridges, canals, parks and more... Now the time has come to get hold of the hiking guide of the Beaufort exhibition! My aim was to go there, but Brugge will see me again! |
|
Nieuwpoort will be my base for touring the Begium coast. But first the different locations of the hiking guide have to be submitted into the
GPS. Only with small baggage I go to De Panne in search of Gormley's "rusty guys": They have already left their place and lay "lazy" in the sun... |
Nieuwpoort Sui Jianguo: Chinese Garden More...? |
|
Middelkerke Wim Delvoye: Caterpillar More...? |
The cross of Poirier can be seen from far, it leads to a ordinary parking lot of Koksijde-Oostduinkerke. |
|
Back on the promenade I follow the coast,
her tram and pass Delvoye's "Caterpillar". |
Oostende Daniel Spoerri: IK, James Ensor More...? |
|
De Haan David Mach: The Diving Woman More...? |
There the study of Ensor can be found, cast by Spoerri in bronze. |
|
Mach's frozen moment is still there...
The request to respect art can be found on its foot! |
Blankenberge Thomas Ruff & Co: Billboard More...? |
|
Zeebrugge Johan Muyle: What a wonderful world More...? |
On the first glance there seems an UFO to have landed on the beach of Zeebrugge, the sight of Winter's & Hörbelt's "Gangway" is very unreal.
|
|
In Knokke-Heist not just the Beaufort exhibition finds its end but also the coast of Belgium.
|
Knokke-Heist Cracking Art loves William Sweetlove More...? |
|
Sluis Sluis schmiegt sich sich noch immer in seinen Stadtwall und grüßt von weitem mit seiner Mühle. More...? |
The charm of Sluis lies not only within its seeting in the the landscape, but also its gastronomic variety.
|
|
My luck with the weather seems to disappear, its getting colder and dark clouds are now coming up. The nights are becoming really chilly,
I wasn't used to freeze anymore. Even the wind during the day changes its face: From a nice welcome fresh breeze to a strong headwind. No more easy spinning along the embankment.
