The Morning News

If you happen to find yourself in West Vlaanderen over the next three months, I highly suggest a visit to BE-PART, in Waregem, where you can see The Morning News, a beautiful exhibition of work selected from the FRAC Nord – Pas de Calais‘ collection, with a a few new works commissioned specifically for the show.

With names like Darboven, Parreno, Mullican, Nauman, and Pettibon, amongst others, you wont be disappointed.

After seeing the video report of the Philip Guston show at McKee gallery, by James Kalm, I knew I had to see the show.

I was not disappointed.
