Victor Bourgeois is the leading Belgian representative of the international Modern Movement and played a central role in the development of modern architecture in Brussels, Belgium and, to some extent, internationally. He is an architect-builder, writer, organizer of cultural events and teacher at the Institut Supérieur des Arts Décoratifs - La Cambre.

The exhibition was divided into two parts. On the one hand, 17 diptychs combined recent photographs by Maxime Delvaux with images that Bourgeois himself had made of his work. A contemporary view thus entered into dialogue with the historical documents and highlighted our way of seeing the architecture of that period. On the other hand, the exhibition offered a broad overview of Bourgeois' work on the basis of 33 projects organized into five themes. These are arranged chronologically and correspond to the evolution of Bourgeois' approach.
