Founded in 1971, the ISELP– an institution for the study of visual arts – is a place where contemporary art is approached from different angles which are mutually enriching. This plurality makes a singularity: our activities of demonstration, reflection, research, mediation and publishing all make up the richness of art today.
The ISELP benefits critical discourse concerning contemporary art by offering conferences, projections, discussions, meetings, readings, guided visits, cultural voyages and educational activities. Particular attention is given to the question of art in the public space, by the development of a think tank which leads reflection on the subject, encouraging meetings and offering the public a centre of reference.
Finally, the institute welcomes the main public documentation center of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles for visual arts in the 20th and 21st centuries.

Accommodated by the Province de Hainaut, the Centre is developing a series of activities and is offering a number of services in order to fulfil its main objectives: to help authors in the management of their works, including the distribution and promotion of their publications in the theatrical and literary worlds in Belgium and abroad, as well as the aim of promoting the circulation of playwrights in the context of international exchanges.
Amongst its activities, it in particular manages an active Théâtrothèque which groups together more than 900 manuscripts and works edited by authors of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles. Since 2009, the Centre has taken care of the management of a writer’s residence situated in the park of Mariemont.

maelstrÖm means ‘abyss’ or ‘whirlpool’, natural phenomena geographically situated near to the Norwegian cost, just beyond the polar circle. A metaphorical phenomenon situated in the Yin Yang of our spirit, where light only exists through the shadow that it projects and where shadow is the condition of the birth of light. The first symbolic return to ‘A Descent into the Maelström’ by Edgar Allan Poe.
reEvolution refers to dreams, revolution, the dream of evolution, and acts of poetic re-evolution, of course.
Maelström was founded in 1990 as an open group of artists, poets and writers of all genres, across Rome, Brussels and Paris. In 2003, Maelström became a publishing house and participated in the creation of the network RéÉvolution Poétique in 2002. On the 22nd and 23rd April 2008, the disciples of re-evolutionary poetry would never decisively split, Maelström et Maelström Editions died for this double birth: that of maelstrÖm reEvolution!

Ousia is a publishing house founded in 1979 by philosophy teachers of the French-speaking universities in Belgium. It aims to publish worthy philosophical essays, not only of well-known philosophers, but also and especially of unknown young philosophers. The spirit which animates it is that philosophy compromises of the persistent implementation of a vigilance, a concern, an awareness whose character resides in the tendency to open itself and attach itself to questions which don’t have a response already.

A publishing house founded in 1996, the Editions Amyris are well-known and respected for the contents of their work, and holding the copyrights of all of its titles which are original works.
As the founders of Editions Amyris like to highlight, the heart of the matter is the collection. Rather than aiming to simply publish new work after new work, Amyris takes the opposite stance to this publishing method.
Integrated in different collections, works such as Douce Alternative, Primum Non Nocere, Les Singuliers essentially deal with health, in prevention and alternative medicine.

Le Cormier Editions was founded in Brussels in 1949 by Fernand Verhesen (1913-2009). Poet, essayist and translator, Verhesen was also a great discoverer who significantly contributed to making the French-speaking public aware of Spanish and Latin-American poetry.
Also strongly interested in typography, he created and printed it himself on a little printing press – the first Cormier books – and showed, during his life, an equal interest in both the choice of texts, and their physical presentation.
This is a philosophy Le Cormier continues to follow today by only publishing four titles per year, edited and published by devoting the greatest care to the production of the actual book. The catalogue of the house distinguishes itself by a large variety of voices and the refusal of orthodoxy ; loyalty to poets of long-standing next to the spirit of discovery. The reader will find numerous Belgian and French authors, as well as important collections of Latin-American poetry.

The Union Académique Internationale (UAI) is an international organisation of national academies in the fields of human and social sciences. Its objectives are to initiate, recognise, promote and finance long-term international research projects. Founded in 1919 in Paris with a General Secretariat established in Brussels, the UAI consists today of around one hundred Academies, from 63 countries across every continent. Conscious that numerous projects of a wide scope in human and social sciences cannot be undertaken and carried out in a short space of time, UAI has declared itself ready to support important long-term projects. The UAI already sponsors over 3000 works. Many of those are fundamental reference tools, such as dictionaries, encyclopaedias, and text editions, of which certain publications are available on the web. The UAI is constantly launching new international projects, the most recent regarding the transformation of Mediterranean cities throughout history.
