Art on Cows Brussels
In my weekend getaway to Brussels, I witnessed an unusual art exhibition: Art on Cows. The happy cows were spread across the entire city, with a bigger concentration in the Atomium area. I took several photos, because I thought the idea was cool. It seems many people thought it was cool, because I started to notice such colorful cows in Bucharest, then I met them in Switzerland, in Lugano.
Where To Stay in Brussels
While today the cows are long gone, all other Brussels monuments and landmarks are as beautiful as ever. If I were to visit this city again, I’d choose a hotel near Grand Place or near Les Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert. Parc du Cinquantenaire is another interesting area for solo travelers and not only.
Memories in Brussels
Anyway, here are the cows I met in Brussels in the summer of 2003 (I can’t believe this was 20 years ago already). You may not find them there now, so don’t pack your bags to go to Brussels for this.
Instead, read my idea of itinerary to spend 2 days in Brussels; maybe you’ll want to follow in my steps.
The clown cow
The dressed-up cow (it seems her date has just arrived)
The shopping addict cow – this one was at the entrance of a big shopping gallery, probably waiting for the opening hour
The golden cow – so glaring that my camera refused to focus
The judge – justice above all!
Abstract pattern cow
Purple cow – so tired, it can’t stand anymore
Camouflage cow
Still nature with plants and fish on cows
The submarine – how fast do you think this one sinks?
The Mad Cow (La Vache Folle) playing the horse for the little kid
The office cow
Just another green spotted cow – it looks like this one’s got a lot of milk
Simply grass – this one was protected by a glass container
Poker anyone?
What do you think? Do you like this kind of art? Is it better than graffiti? Have you seen the cows elsewhere in the world?
