Grège Gallery presents an exhibition of Chidy Wayne, in a historical location: the Castle of Male in Brugge.

‍
Opening Hours:

Friday - Sunday: 11 AM - 6 PM

Or by appointment other days of the week.

‍

Born in 1981 in Barcelona, Chidy Wayne has established himself as a distinctive artist with a personal, minimalist, and figurative painting style. His creations, characterised by a primitive and minimalist nature, draw inspiration from both ancestral traditions and the avant-garde art scene. Through quick and bold strokes, he tackles universal themes, exploring self-awareness and internal conflict in his two main series, EGO and PUGNA, which reflect his combative spirit.

‍

Chidy Wayne will hold his third solo show in Belgium and, for the first time, the artist will also present a series of sculptures in addition to paintings and drawings. Since 2021, Chidy Wayne has exhibited in Brussels, Antwerp, New York, Paris, Miami, San Francisco, Madrid, Los Angeles, and Barcelona, demonstrating his international recognition.

‍

The Chateau de Male, located near Bruges in Belgium, is a historic building dating back to the 9th century. Over time, this residence has undergone several major transformations, with the last residents being the nuns of the Saint-Trudo Abbey. The venue features a harmony of lines and light, providing a striking architectural journey. Its large vaults recall the Romanesque style, combining robustness and simplicity. The walls of raw plaster and stone highlight a modernist aesthetic that celebrates the beauty of the materials. Natural light floods the space, illuminating the spacious and open interiors, and transforming every corner into a gallery of shadows and lights.

‍

The opening will take place on Saturday, July 27th from 2 PM to 9 PM.
