    Echos de partout Two hundred works of art to exchange For the second time, the Château Malou artwork lending gallery launches its major "Truc-troc" operation, bringing together this year sixty artists and some 200 rigorously selected paintings and sculptures. The "truc" is the thing you have at home: the old 2 CV, the antique clock, the plane ticket to Japan or your new dishwasher. At a pinch, a small painting, a few Pink Floyd or Mozart records. The "troc" is the artist's agreement to exchange their canvas or sculpture for your thing. Epic dialogues in prospect... Truc-troc, 7 to 22 October, 2 to 7 pm, château Malou, 45, ch. de Stockel, 1200 Brussels. Tel.: 02-762.21.05.
