About dépendance

dépendance was founded in 2003. As part of the avant-garde tradition, the gallery sees itself as a link between the artist, the art institutions and the commercial art world. Since its founding, the gallery has presented the work of artists who take a social and political stance and operate both inside and outside the established art circuit. The gallery represents twenty seven artists of different generations. dépendance held the first international exhibitions for artists such as Sergej Jensen (2003), Haegue Yang (2004), Michaela Eichwald (2005), Jana Euler (2010) and Peter Wächtler (2013) among others. dépendance was one of the first galleries to open downtown, what later became a significant area for young art in Brussels for both commercial and non- profit spaces. As of the 12th of September, 2014 dépendance is operating out of rue du marche aux porcs 4 and 8. The renewed gallery space marks a new phase in the development of dépendance.
