On Wednesday March 17, King Philippe was the first to tour the exhibition that celebrates the idiosyncratic, vibrant work of Roger Raveel, Belgium’s most celebrated post-war 20th century painter. His guide was Sophie Lauwers, Director of Exhibitions at BOZAR, who led the King through six decades of the artist’s work. They were accompanied by Minister-President of the French Community Pierre-Yves Jeholet and Minister-President of Flanders Jan Jambon, and BOZAR-chairman Count Etienne Davignon.
