Modo-bruxellae 2006: NURSE & DANIEL HENRY<\/strong>
\n“Souvenir de Bruxelles \/ Souvenir van Brussel”<\/p>\n

\"06_parcours_01s.jpg\"<\/p>\n

\"flyer_modo\"<\/p>\n

Nurse and Daniel Henry collaborated for this project and showed in the shop window of Plaizier, a lovely family business specialized in postcards and books relating to Brussels, Belgium, architecture and monuments, usually whith a touch of surrealism and sweet nostalgia. We chose to work on images of Brussels’ modernist buildings which have either been pulled down or renovated to change their aspect (Martini tower, Lotto tower, Berlaymont, Atomium, Ravenstein gallery, Finance tower…).
\n\"modo6.jpg\"<\/p>\n

We printed a series of handkerchieves and silk scarves, sometimes with a recognisable image, which at othertimes was blown up to a large scale and used in a more abstract way.
\nThe window installation included a poster, a book and postcards of the modernist buildings edited by Plaizier.<\/p>\n
