English:Q-O2 Werkplaats (Q617951)

Q-O2 has grown from a contemporary music ensemble to a structurally subsidized workspace for experimental contemporary music and sound art. The organisation has its own space in the centre of Brussels. In musical terms Q-O2 explores mainly three lines of approach: acoustic and electronic improvisation and composed music as well as installations and sound art. Through its conceptual preoccupations Q-O2 finds easily points of access to other disciplines. Practically, Q-O2 workspace functions on three levels: by hosting artists on a working residency, by starting up and guiding projects in collaboration with other venues/art centres and by organising concerts on its own premises.
