    At château Malou Success for the Truc-Troc As we recently reported, the Woluwe-Saint-Lambert artwork lending gallery is running until 30 August an artistic event revolving around the personality of 200 contemporary Belgian artists: the Truc-Troc. The originality of the "Truc-Troc" lies in the fact that 200 works of very high quality are exchanged for 200 objects. In a word, the public offers the artist an object in return for their work and, if the artist agrees, the work is exchanged for good. The success this formula has met exceeds all the organisers' expectations. The quality of the exhibition is doubtless not unrelated to it. Since 14 June, the public has used its imagination. Until 31 August, from 10 am to 7 pm, at Château Malou, chaussée de Stockel, 45.
