Vacant City
Brussels' Mont des Arts Reconsidered

Published by nai010 publishers/Brussels 2000.
Edited by Lieven de Cauter. Contributions by Bruno De Meulder, Hilde Heynen, Andre Loeckx, Karina van Herck, Tom Aavermaete, Paul Vermeulen.

The Mont des Arts district in Brussels is the city's museum quarter, home to the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, the Center for Fine Arts, the Museum of Cinema and numerous other cultural institutions. Vacant City assesses the project to reconfigure this district, which was originally designed to steer the city's development and cultural activity, but which has largely failed to do so. Offering a fascinating insight into the problematic history of the Mont des Arts as an urban site, Vacant City also raises larger questions regarding the role of museums and cultural institutions for and in the cities of the future, as our paradigms of both the modern city and the modern museum begin to alter.
