The event has been becoming popular among artists around the world and this year 20 new artists from 8 different countries will be displaying their works in the sloping landscape of the Flemish Ardennes.
The theme of this year’s Sculptour is ‘Reflection’. With some artists, this leads to the creation of physically direct reflections in their work. Some other artists give more emphasis on reflection as an indicator that encourages society to think.

“We are delighted that this initiative allows us to share our little piece of paradise through this national art event with the art lovers and that nature lovers will also find something to their liking. Our garden is a wonderful example where all ingredients, which are characteristic of the nature of the Flemish Ardennes, flow together,” says the organizers of the event.
