We are delighted to invite you to a new cultural and inspiring evening, devoted to art, transmission, and passion.
We will have the great pleasure of welcoming you on Tuesday, February 10, at the Warwick, in the company of Xavier Tricot, Belgian art historian, artist, and writer, internationally recognized as one of the foremost specialists on James Ensor.

Curator of many exhibitions devoted to James Ensor in Belgium and abroad, Xavier Tricot combines acknowledged scholarly rigor with an artistic sensitivity nourished by his own practice of painting and poetry.
During this evening, he will speak with passion about James Ensor: his singular life, his bold and visionary work, and his fundamental role as a pioneer of modern art. An informed and vivid perspective on a free and profoundly provocative artist.

The exhibition Who’s Next, created by the Architekturmuseum der Technischen Universität München (Pinakothek der Moderne), presents a wide range of architectural approaches to addressing the phenomenon of homelessness.
Homelessness has been increasing in slightly larger cities. In the 1970s and 1980s, one could observe “traditional vagabonds” in certain isolated areas. They were, in a way, familiar figures whose stories were known by many. This situation drastically changed with the spread of drugs. The line between drug users and the homeless became blurred. At the same time, with the opening of borders, begging became more widespread. Homelessness grew in scale and became more visible.
We are facing a problem that will persist and needs to be better understood, especially as we deal with multiple types of homelessness and equally varied motivations.
This exhibition, shown in Munich, Hamburg, and Bolzano, consists of panels, videos, and models illustrating a series of examples from cities outside Europe, case studies within Europe, and concludes with a perspective on Luxembourg. International examples—Los Angeles, São Paulo, Hong Kong, and Munich—highlighted in the exhibition, aim to encourage reflection on potential solutions.
Rejecting radical exclusion and instead fostering a nuanced understanding of the phenomenon is one of the exhibition’s goals. It calls for rethinking our approach.
