Art within the walls of a museum or rather in the middle of the urban buzz, out in the streets? In Ghent, you don't have to choose between indoors or outdoors, classic or modern, grand or intimate: there are as many forms of art as there are people. Painting or street art, installations or videos: there is something for everyone in the artistic offer.
