To coincide with our exhibition ORIGINS OF CINEMA: Magic Lanterns, Cinematograph, and Pioneer Projectors, the Palace offers a series of conferences to extend the experience beyond the screens.

CONFERENCE - From the Pathé Palace to the Palace: The Story of a Repurposing, Alain Richard (architect)

Today, the Palace has been in existence for 8 years and has clearly found its place in Brussels’ cultural life. In fact, this venue has existed for 145 years. Today, it has regained its place in Brussels’ cultural life. The architect behind this repurposing of the space explains the complex and obstacle-strewn process that led to the final result: these spaces that we inhabit, that we bring to life, that we share with you, and that allow us to offer you the best of contemporary cinema and a variety of events and shared moments. Images of the project with commentary by the architect.
