REPORTING. Fernand Huts and his ‘American Dream’ in Denver: “Aren’t we all fools?”

“This will put Flanders on the map for another four months.” Fernand Huts (72) speaks plainly at the opening of the ‘Saints, Sinners, Lovers & Fools’ exhibition at the Denver Art Museum in Colorado. In the presence of a prince, the Flemish press and the remarkable curator Katharina Van Cauteren, the CEO of Katoen Natie makes her way through his impressive collection of Flemish Masters: “Art is given a completely different interpretation in American society. Belgium can learn something from that.”
