A Fresco in Homage to Chantal Akerman in Brussels Rue Saint-André / Quai aux Barques 6, 1000 Bruxelles

In the heart of Brussels, a vibrant celebration of cinematic genius serves as homage to  Belgian filmmaker Chantal Akerman. In her mesmerizing mural, Alba Fabre Sacristán portrays Akerman's iconic film on the very street it was filmed: Jeanne Dielman, 23, quai du commerce, 1080 Brussels.

But that's not all; in a declaration of reverence, the Aldermanship of Urbanism has bestowed a new identity on the Quai du Commerce: the "Allée Chantal Akerman," where the legacy of an extraordinary storyteller lives on, eternally interwoven with the tapestry of the city itself.
