Museum Gevaert-Minne, Art museum in Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium.
Description
Museum Gevaert-Minne is an art museum set on a large estate with exhibition spaces housed in a building that blends monastic and Gothic architectural details. The property spans about 7.5 acres with multiple areas designed for displaying artwork.
History
The property belonged to Edgar Gevaert, son of an Oudenaarde industrialist, who built the house during the 1920s after purchasing land along Kapitteldreef. This period marked the start of his career as both artist and patron.
Culture
The museum displays works by artists of the Sint-Martens-Latem movement who settled in this region to pursue new forms of expression. The collection reflects how nature and creative practice were deeply connected for this artistic group.
Practical
The museum is wheelchair accessible with advance arrangement and offers parking near the entrance for all visitors. The large grounds deserve time to explore, so plan to spend at least a couple of hours to see the collections and outdoor areas.
