A major traveling exhibition of the work of Cuban-born artist Félix González Torres will premiere at Wiels, a contemporary art center in Brussels, Belgium. Opening on January 16 and running through April 25, Specific Objects Without Specific Forms (Objetos específicos sin forma específica) presents rarely exhibited pieces along with some of the artist's most renowned works.

González Torres is best known for generous yet rigorously conceptual art, which frequently took the form of continually replenished stacks of posters and candy spills, as well as light strings, beaded curtains, and public billboards. Using everyday elements such as used light bulbs or the traces left by human bodies on a bed, the artist portrayed the temporal condition of both art and human experience.

Conceived as an international laboratory for contemporary art, Weils is housed in the old Wielemans-Ceuppens brewery, built by modernist architect Adrien Blomme. The building offers an open, dynamic setting for art events, concerts, and film festivals.
