Hangar is the leading art center and gallery dedicated to contemporary photography in Brussels.
Founded in 2016, Hangar is committed to promoting photography in all its forms, supporting artistic creation, and fostering meaningful connections between artists, audiences, and collectors.
Through its gallery activities, Hangar provides long-term artistic and professional support to both represented and supported artists, accompanying the development of their practices and promoting their work internationally. From a wide range of backgrounds, these artists dare to shake up the codes of photography, from the conceptual to the documentary, reappropriating the medium and transforming it. They address the major challenges of our time - including the ecological emergency and creating in the age of artificial intelligence - by means of singular visual identities, inviting us through their work to question our relationship with the world.
By organising exhibitions, participating in international art fairs, and developing collaborations with cultural institutions, Hangar supports artists' visibility and creates opportunities for their work to reach new audiences.
Hangar also plays an active role in connecting artists with collectors, offering personalised guidance, facilitating acquisitions, and encouraging lasting relationships around contemporary photography.
Alongside its gallery operations, Hangar develops an ambitious exhibition programme featuring museum-scale solo and thematic exhibitions by internationally acclaimed photographers and emerging talents.
Committed to nurturing the next generation of photographers, Hangar supports emerging talent through open calls, partnerships with art schools, and dedicated exhibition opportunities.
Beyond its exhibition spaces, Hangar fosters dialogue and discovery through a specialised photography bookshop, a programme of conferences, artist talks, workshops, and cultural events, notably the Photo Brussels Festival.
Bringing together the dual expertise of an art center and a contemporary art gallery, Hangar offers a unique platform for discovering, supporting, and collecting photography.
