BRAFA 2011

Last night I went to the Collectors preview of the Brafa 2011. With Sofie a good friend of mine. Well to make my article short it was a mix between antiques, wealthy people, lots of champagne and lots of zakouskis. The proof there was much champagne is that all my pictures weren't very steady. But no panic, normally tuesday I go back to make some other pictures.

Here are some pics already, enjoy!!!

Brafa 2011 Collectors Preview

What was I happy today when I collected my mail. Not because of all the bills I receive or junk mail. But I received my invitation to go to the BRAFA Collectors Preview tomorrow. I wrote already a post about it when I went to the press conference in Antwerp.

The Exhibition opens Friday, but Thursdays Princess Mathilde is opening the fair. And I will be there also :-)

Here his a picture of the nice invitation.

Thats meaning that I am gonna see wonderful things and take a lot of pictures and share them with you.

Brafa 2011 press conference

Yesterday I had a day off from work but thats doesn't mean I had nothing to do. First I had to make a nice breakfast to my B&B guest. And after that I had to run to Antwerp to assist at the press conference of the BRAFA edition 2011. The conference started with a breakfast and sad news. The president of honour Madame Zeberg died after a cancer. She was a great lady with a wonderful shop in Antwerp behind the Cathedral.

This year the BRAFA will expose some new exhibitors and also some masterpieces from the collection of the Mayer Van Den Bergh Museum in Antwerp.

After the conference we received a tour in this wonderful museum and a walking dinner with champagne.

I am sure the edition of 2011 will be even better than last year. But I will have to wait till the end of january before it starts.

Here are some pictures of the museum.
