Nikita Kadan selected for Future Generation Art Price 2014
The Future Generation Art Prize established by the Victor Pinchuk Foundation in 2009 is a worldwide contemporary art prize to discover, recognize and give long-term support to a future generation of artists. The Prize is a major contribution to the open participation of younger artists in the dynamic cultural development of societies in global transition.
The Prize is an innovative new international award for artists up to 35 years of age, investing in the artistic development and new production of works. Awarded through a competition, judged by a distinguished jury, the Prize is founded on the idea of generosity, a network of outstanding patron artists and institutional partners, and a highly democratic application procedure.

Paradis incertain, curated by Abdelkader Damani
Opening June 25 6:30 - 20:30 pm
Exhibition > 03.08.2014
... Neither removed from the world, nor destroying the world, the artist suggests, in his work, that it is just a matter of coming back to it to hope for a real paradise: that of matter, of sounds, of odours, of flowing words, of a never-ending dance of encounters across a global Earth. To achieve this, one must re-examine images, force them to turn their backs on the wild fantasies.

Transit art gallery
ENG
Transit was founded in 1988 in Leuven, Belgium by Dirk Vanhecke and Bert de Leenheer. The gallery moved to Mechelen in 1998.
Transit exhibits and promotes contemporary art.
The gallery is housed in an art déco building (1934) where art works are shown in an informal context.
Transit believes that every way of expression that an artist chooses can be a valid way, therefore different ways of expression (painting, photography, performance, sculpture, installation, video, audio, concept, ...) can find their place in the gallery and in the office that also serves as permanent exhibition space.
