( s o o n ) is an independent private gallery space
showcasing up-and-coming talent, from within and outside our Belgian borders.
Situated in a duplex apartment on the 13th floor of the Riverside Tower, a brutalist gem by renowned architects Léon Stynen and Paul De Meyer overlooking the river, the rich cultural city of Antwerp and the harbour.

Locating the gallery in a residential home provides a unique setting for artists to show
their work and allows the audience to spend more time than usual in the gallery,
fully absorbing the creative atmosphere.

The artistic vision of the gallery is not fixed and will evolve over time and with experience gained. We will look into the possibility of residencies in the future.
The duplex is the last original duplex in the tower.
making it a proper architectural time capsule.

Looking froward to welcome you here in Antwerp ( s o o n ) !

    ( s o o n ) gallery

    This exhibition titled GROUP SHOW brings together four seemingly distinct artists. Their styles, themes and ways of working appear to diverge, yet they share an unusual origin: they all emerged from one and the same maker, Lies Casier.

    Group Show departs from the concept of heteronyms — invented artists with their own name, background and artistic practice. The four artists - Clara, Pablo, Rosa and Josse (left to right, top to bottom)- do not function as simple masks, but as autonomous voices, each with their own view of art and the world. At times they find common ground; at others they contradict one another. It is precisely in that tension that the essence of the exhibition emerges. The question of the "real" maker is deliberately kept in the background. More important is what happens when one person splits into multiple artistic identities. As a visitor, you move between these four voices — which may be more closely connected than they first appear.

    Come find out for yourself! :)

  • ( s o o n ) duplex | architectural time capsule

    Welcome to ( s o o n ) duplex!
    This spacious 2-bedroom flat is the last original duplex in the magnificent brutalist gem, Riverside Tower (1972), designed by renowned Belgian architects Leon Stynen and Paul De Meyer.

    In 2022 the building celebrated its 50th birthday and this milestone was marked by the publication of a book by architectural historian and architect Marc Dubois: ‘Riverside Tower Antwerpen, Iconische woontoren | Modern erfgoed’. Unfortunately the book is sold out in most bookstores.

    Besides being an architectural treasure and a fantastic home to live in, the duplex offers breathtaking views over the city of Antwerp and the harbour.
