COMING SOON

Julien Creuzet: Attila cataract your source at the feet of the green peaks will end up in the great sea blue abyss we drowned in the tidal tears of the moon

Julien Creuzet (b. 1986, Le Blanc Mesnil, France, lives Paris) has reimagined his French Pavillion from the 60th Venice Biennale (2024) for The Bell: an immersive video and archipelagic sculptural installation that extends his focus on water as a site of both historical and contemporary traumas and emancipatory futures.

On view February 20–June 1, 2025.

THE BELL

The Bell is Brown's contemporary art space and a program of the Brown Arts Institute. Free and open to the public.

The Bell’s program is defined by new commissions and exhibition projects with emerging and underrecognized artists whose work aligns with the interdisciplinary research interests of its curatorial team.
The Bell commissions two to three major exhibitions a year that are amplified by public events and conversations, performances, artist residencies, academic symposia, and publications. They are developed with Brown faculty, departments, centers, and institutes and with partners in the Providence region, nationally, and internationally.
The Bell maintains a collection of more than 7,000 works of art, dating from the 16th century to the present, with particularly rich holdings in 20th and 21st century works on paper. Recent acquisitions include works by Deana Lawson, Sadie Barnette, and Martine Gutierrez.

HOURS

We are currently closed for installation and will reopen on February 20, 2025.

The Bell is open daily 11 AM–5 PM and both Thursdays & Fridays 11 AM–8 PM when exhibitions are on view, with the exception of holiday closures
