BNP Paribas Fortis actively and concretely supports contemporary art and young Belgian artists.
BNP Paribas Fortis contributes to raise the awareness of the public for contemporary art by supporting young artists

Culture turned to the present and creation

Culture is not only a matter of heritage of the past. The art of today and tomorrow must be accessible to as many people as possible.

This is why we support two key Belgian contemporary art institutions:

  • The museum Dhondt-Dhaenens in Deurle
  • WIELS Contemporary Arts Centre in Brussels

Supporting young artistic Belgian creation

BNP Paribas Fortis organises occasionally a competition, the "Young Artistic Talent Award". The competition is open to artists aged from 18 to 35 residing, studying or living in Belgium. The competition is open to all artistic disciplines, without imposed theme. Read our article on the 2013 competition.
