Important
note from Brussels: (June 17th 2008)
13th INTERNATIONAL LACE BIENNAL - Brussels -
Contemporary Art. Liquidation of a non-profit-making
association. QUEEN FABIOLA'S GRAND PRIX. - The 13
Biennial was to celebrate its 25 anniversary with a major
retrospective of the Queen Fabiola's Grand Prix shown in
the same time as the exhibition of Brussels. However,
for reasons completely beyond our control, the 13th
International Lace Biennial will not take place. Despite all the efforts undertaken
by the administrative board, the association has had to
be wound up due to the lack of candidates willing
organise the 2008 Biennial and continue the association's
activities. E-mail: c.delwiche@dbk.be
