The Bulletin was a great place to be as a young journalist totally new to Brussels (and not just for the legendary Christmas parties).

Belgium contributes to the art world’s ‘Picasso Celebration 1973-2023’ with Picasso & Abstraction, tracing the artist’s often complex relationship with the major 20th-century art movement.
When I joined, the sub-editors were under the editorial direction of Matthew Davis (production editor), Ben Tarring (deputy editor) and Brigid Grauman (editor-in-chief).
