About the event
In spring 2024, the Slate Museum brings together two artist-friends from the Arlon region to exhibit together in the former slab sawmill of Haut-Martelange. These are Renaud MATGEN, known for his superimposed slate sculptures, and Frédéric BIREN, well-known a painter in the Greater Region for his paintings with melancholic faces.
Originally initiated by those responsible for the Municipality of Martelange (B), the exhibition has a real cross-border character due to the fact that the municipalities on both sides of the border, namely Martelange for Belgium and Rambrouch for the Grand Duchy , come together for a co-organization with the Slate Museum on the exceptional site of the old slate quarries of Haut-Martelange.
