Brussels may be the heart of the EU but unassuming Antwerp has long been one of Europe's most prosperous ports. Join us as we drop anchor at both cosmopolitan hubs - and dip in and out of a few of Belgium's smaller, canal-laced cities in between. It's a boon and burden to Belgium that Brussels is the capital of both the country and the rest of Europe. There are many benefits to hosting this lofty seat of power but the city can also fall victim to the associated red tape. An hour away by train, Antwerp is a more relaxed affair, where the creative and cultural scenes almost outshine the city's famous diamonds. For this travel guide we've toured both destinations and found plenty of gems throughout.

Upgrade' breathes new life into forgotten architecture. Past structures are consciously preserved and revamped, expanded and altered, to create something exciting and enticing. 'Upgrade' explores architectural and design concepts that seek to enhance and repurpose our surroundings from slight changes to complete renovations. Extensions upon a rooftop. Factories turned into relaxing retreats. Wood additions contrasting with antique brick exteriors. Through engaging anecdotes and inspiriting images, 'Upgrade' provides vibrant exemplars and enthusiasm for revamping existing spaces. Repurposing the unused: be it an empty chapel that becomes an inviting writer?s nook or a rotten barn converted into a cozy living space for a small family. The projects illustrate the possibility of adding a touch of the new to the old: farmhouses adorned with modern glass additions or churches whose traditional lines now frame an office. What are ruins to some become another?s architectural playground.

Pablo Picasso's graphic work brings his recurring subjects together in a uniquely compact way. Created over seven decades, this artwork is one of the most important graphic collections of the twentieth century. Over the seven decades of Pablo Picasso's artistic career, there were subjects to which he returned again and again. These include women, bulls, and the Old Masters as well as political and literary themes, circus people, mythical creatures, and interiors. In order to further explore his changing personal perspective on these subjects, this large format, 300-page book showcases Pablo Picasso's graphic work in chapters structured according to these recurring themes. Women, Bulls, Old Masters presents 200 graphic prints, lithographs, drawings, and collages from Pablo Picasso's artistic beginnings in the early 1960s. Ranging from black and white to colorful, the artwork represents his various styles from classic to cubistic to surrealistic. the included texts not only examine the work in a historical context, but also reevaluate it from a contemporary point of view. This book juxtaposes a selection of Pablo Picasso's graphic works with the classical paintings that inspired them. The visual dialogue that results reveals interesting parallels and the clear influence of Old Masters such as Rembrandt, Cranach, and Goya on Picasso's work. Women, Bulls, Old Masters is rounded out by a biographic chronology, a detailed list of Pablo Picasso's artworks, and a bibliography. The book is edited by Dr. Anita Beloubek-Hammer, curator at the Kupferstichkabinett (Museum of Prints and Drawings) in Berlin. In 1912, the Kupferstichkabinett became one of the first museums to acquire an artwork by Pablo Picasso. Today it holds one of the world's most important collections of his graphic work.
