Antwerpen, 10-11 oktober 2026 – Komt u dit weekend ook een kijkje nemen en de meest verrassende kunst ontdekken die ons land te bieden heeft? De tweede editie van kunstbeurs BiAF (10-11 oktober) in de Antwerpse Waagnatie balanceert tussen opkomend talent, onbekende parels en lokale tot internationale grote namen. Met die belangrijke rode draad dat BiAF zijn standen voor de volle 100% reserveert voor individuele kunstenaars, zodat die geheel onafhankelijk hun werk presenteren en rechtstreeks in contact komen met bezoekers en verzamelaars. BiAF selecteerde opnieuw bijzonder streng - onder het toeziend oog van beursmanager Zoë Schoonbrood (Bilzen) - meer dan 100 kunstenaars voor de tweede afspraak in Antwerpen. Bent u erbij? \u200b \u200b

U komt dit weekend graag zelf eens langs om nieuw talent te ontdekken? \u200b Wenst u een interview met de organisatoren of een van de deelnemende kunstenaars uit uw regio? Heeft u nog extra info nodig om een aankondigend artikel te maken? We horen het graag. PERSCONTACT BiAF, Seppe Slaets (BUZZ): +32 477 62 87 66 of seppe@buzz-agency.be.

Focus op individuele kunstenaar

De formule achter de BiAF 2026 breekt bewust met de traditionele kunstmarkt: bezoekers kopen rechtstreeks van de maker, zonder commissies of prijsopslagen.

Beursmanager Zoë Schoonbrood: "Als Limburgse uit Bilzen met een Antwerpse academieachtergrond ligt mijn culturele hart in de Koekenstad, dus de beurs moést hier simpelweg plaatsvinden. Omdat ik zelf kunstenares ben, begrijp ik als geen ander de constante strijd tussen het maken van werk en het durven tonen ervan. Dat is meteen onze gouden formule: ik weet precies hoe kunstenaars denken en waar ze nood aan hebben. Die herkenning voelen de deelnemers heel sterk aan. De kern van BiAF is dat het 100% draait om het individuele talent, volledig zonder galeries of tussenpersonen. Als maker steek je immers zoveel ziel en moeite in je creaties dat het pijnlijk is om de helft aan commissies af te staan. Onze beurs biedt een toegankelijk podium waar de kunstenaar zelf kan glunderen. Dat we dit jaar maar liefst zestig kandidaten hebben moeten teleurstellen, bewijst voor ons dat deze aanpak echt werkt. We kiezen heel bewust voor kwaliteit boven kwantiteit, want de Waagnatie heeft natuurlijk haar fysieke grenzen. Het is een enorme luxe dat de beurs zo snel volzet raakte en dat de inschrijvingen voor 2027 nu al binnenstromen. BiAF is voor mij als organisator én als kunstenares dan ook een droom die uitkomt."
