Gallery Gallery is a Brussels-based commercial gallery focusing on Contemporary Architecture that looks at exploring the intrinsic paradox of the discipline, or the impossibility of exhibiting architecture if not through an act of displacement.
Founded by Jonathan Robert Maj in 2024, Gallery Gallery celebrates the quality of architectural production by showcasing the works of both established and emerging artists and architects, locally and internationally.
Gallery Gallery operates through punctual, nomadic exhibitions in collaboration with different actors active in the arts field at large, in the hopes of opening up the architectural discourse and attracting a wider audience.
