Nature Prescription. PaRx.

04 Sep - 18 Oct 2025
Solo show
Opening
Thursday 04 September 2025

From September 4 to October 18, 2025, Galerie La Forest Divonne Brussels is pleased to present a solo exhibition by artist Jean-Marie Bytebier.

This first exhibition by the Flemish artist, part of the Brussels gallery program “Rendez-vous”, marks the beginning of the collaboration between the gallery and the painter. The show will be accompanied by texts from Claire Leblanc, Director of the Musée d’Ixelles, and Koen Van Synghel, belgian writter en architect.

The exhibition is titled “Nature Prescription. PaRx.”—a reference to nature-based therapies prescribed as medical treatments. Jean-Marie Bytebier invites us to immerse ourselves in nature as a form of healing: a breath of air and sensation that transforms us. Jean-Marie Bytebier works with landscape painting, drawing inspiration from the great landscape traditions—Flemish in particular, but also Italian and British—while offering a deeply contemporary perspective. Through his compositions, formats, and textures, he draws the viewer into a space that is at once familiar and mysterious, light and floating. The recurring wide white bands in his paintings affirm the idea of the canvas as a “window”—not one that opens onto a perspective, but rather onto an inner, intimate, and spiritual emotion.

 

Special opening on Sunday September 7 for Rendez-vous, the gallery tour.
