From 25 November 2022 to 7 January 2023, Huberty & Breyne is delighted to be hosting the exhibition "Onomatopée"  in its Brussels gallery. Curated by Cécile Angelini, the exhibition  brings together more than 50 contemporary artists from across the globe  and from a variety of disciplines. Each of their creations contributes  to a lively new dialogue focussing on a cutting-edge concept in the  arts. 

The aim of the exhibition is to re-examine the notion of onomatopoeia  from a variety of fascinating angles. Is there an original language  upon which all others are founded, and how would such a language be  interpreted in art? Can all aspects of reality be converted into  onomatopoeic words?
Which best express the age in which we live? How do  we represent a sound or make an image "speak" in sound? Is an image  worth a thousand words? 

As Cécile Angelini, curator of the exhibition, explains,  "Onomatopoeia is a concept dear to comic strip, but also to the visual  arts and to Japanese literature. It enables the artist to tackle such  exciting subjects as the relationship between sound and image,  translation, reality and its representation". 

Paintings, sculptures, installations, videos, drawings, original  plates, texts, photographs and limited editions, executed or selected  specially for the occasion, are displayed throughout the gallery's 1,000  m2 space, filling the brilliant white cube with a riot of shapes and colours. 

Treats in store for the viewer include, among others, an articulating  snake by Gilles Barbier, a "noisy" canvas by Agnès Thurnauer,  travel-reminiscence-words by David Tremlett, a chatty duck by Lotta  Hannerz, a rebus-installation by Lieven De Boeck, an original comic text  by Éric Chevillard and super-heroes by Albert Pepermans.
