Art gallery 'Expo 18' will invite three groups of Ostend residents during the Ensor year to recreate a painting by Ensor, 'View of Mariakerke', under the guidance of artist Koen De Clercq and also to create their own impression of it.
The three groups are primary school pupils from Kroonlaan, a group of residents of the Sint-Monica residential care centre and a group of non-native speakers from Ostend. The works will be sold in Expo18 for the benefit of the non-profit organisation Sint-Monica.
The Ensor City Festival provides the ideal setting for a unique experience in group. The various exhibitions offer a fascinating insight into the world of James Ensor and his influence on the art world. The options are diverse and are tailor-made each time.
