According to organizer Alexander Tuteleers, it is currently a favorable moment for that. “We are with the capital gains and new taxes that are not included, which does not include art. The VAT on art also falls from 21 to 6 percent. Those are things that are interesting in difficult times to invest in art,” he says.

On the occasion of the fiftieth birthday, an exclusive linen bag is also released, painted and signed by the German artist Thitz, in a limited edition. Knokke Art Fair runs until 17 August.
