Red moon is an art incubator that promotes talented female artists from under-represented countries.
Red moon proposes works priced between 500 euros and 5000 Euros, by up-and-coming artists that have already achieved good recognition in their home country and in some of the global art hubs (London, Dubai). The incubator is a "safe space" to find a curated selection of talents that otherwise would be harder to discover as they are scattered around the Globe.
Red Moon's founder, Julie, is a curator and collector with a fascination for up-and-coming art scenes. She is half French and half Indian and therefore started her focus with the Indian sub-continent. She observed that a number of young and motivated artists from these regions find it difficult to exhibit in and connect with the European art scenes.
She created Red Moon in 2019 to bridge that gap by enabling more exchanges between East and West. Passionate about supporting women in all spheres of life, she decided to focus on women artists, who have to overcome a number of hurdles to express themselves both at home and abroad.
Red Moon organises 4 exhibitions per year in Brussels. It also takes part in Art Fairs globally. Please contact us if you are interested to see some works by one of the artists.
Artists currently part of the incubator: 7 women artists that represent different artistic journeys and medium.
