ABOUT DEMAIN

  • DEMAIN supports the local art scene by offering emerging artists a platform and connecting them to our network. We personally assist clients in discovering and buying unique artworks by rising artists. 
     
    INCUBATOR FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF ARTISTS
    DEMAIN's mission is to support and promote emerging artists based in Belgium, not yet represented by a gallery, helping them gain visibility and advance their artistic practice while maintaining their independence. Our aim is to become a stepping stone for the new generation of artists.
     
    Since the start of DEMAIN in June 2020, we have helped several artists find a gallery thanks to the accelerated attention of collectors, curators and gallerists. Incredible to see an artist’s career take off!

  • WHO ARE WE?

    Founded by two passionate professionals in the Belgian art scene, including Florence Derck, recognized among Belgium’s 40 under 40 and former director of Gladstone Gallery Brussels, DEMAIN is committed to championing new talent and reshaping the art landscape with integrity and accessibility.
  • DEMAIN started from the wish to bring change. Complex, opaque, non-eco-friendly and often perceived as elitist, the art world needed a shake-up.
