Laurent Dupont, ‘Sleepworld,’ through 16 December 2023, and Morten Knudsen, Judith Kakon, Hanne Darboven opening 19 January 2024, Gauli Zitter, Brussels, www.gaulizitter.com

From galleries to non-profits, artist-run spaces to ephemeral pop-ups — each issue, we shine the spotlight on an art space that might otherwise escape your attention.

If, on a Saturday afternoon in Ixelles, Brussels, you find yourself winding your way down the hill from the well-heeled crowds and bistros of the Sablon quartier, you might stumble across the new gallery Gauli Zitter.
