Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union

"C’est la fôte à Bruxelles" - "It's all Brussels' fault" - offers  a look back at the history of the European Union through more than two hundred cartoons. Visitors are able to discover Europe from a rare angle. This Community that later became a Union, has grown, matured, experienced and surmounted many a crisis.

A vision of history that will demonstrate that beyond the slogans and simplistic visions, the European Union is the result of the confrontation of ideologies, of strategies between hopes for deepening and the determination for enlargement … in any case a continuous compromise between Stateswomen and Statesmen.

This history is traced with a smile, with the necessary distance that the humility of belonging to a small country generates, which is even so a co-founder of this unity, where it must be noted that is it easier to create the single market than to harmonise Summer Time.

Exhibition staged and produced by the Centre Wallonie-Bruxelles, within the framework of the Belgian Presidency of the Council of the European Union. In cooperation with Courrier International, Le Soir and Cartooning for peace.

Staging and lighting: Bleu Lumière, Yves Maréchal and Dominique Briand.

Closed Saturdays, Sundays and holidays; also on 24 December.
