synopsis

Having turned upside down the site of the Kunstberg in Brussels in Mission Mont des Arts (2002) Augustijnen turns to WIELS with Une Femme Entreprenante, a new centre for contemporary art now in scaffolding in Forest. The figure of Sophie Le Clercq, building promoter and 'la force motrice' behind this cultural project on the site of the former brewery of Wielemans-Ceuppens is at the centre. On the one hand this video might be considered a hommage to the forceful woman who is in charge of the building promoter CIT Blaton. On the other the author uses Le Clercq as a catalyst for all kinds of historical and genealogical trajectories on urban development in Brussels. As if by coincidence these trajectories get more and more entangled in the jumble of art, brokerage and politics, 'le marais de Bruxelles'.
