VISIT THE PRIVATE COLLECTION

A trip to Merode takes you on a personal voyage of self-discovery through the contemporary art collection of Patric Tuytens. Be overwhelmed and be moved. Feel the warmth, the humour, the change of dynamics in every space. Listen to the mutual affirmation of image and story.

The power of this collection lies in its personality. Meet the works with an open mind and reach your own interpretation.

ABOUT MERODE

Merode is an open space in Ronse. The place where Patric and Marie Tuytens, father and daughter, welcome you to wander through the contemporary artworks. Each piece chosen by Patric and given a home in Merode.

A collection that was highly fragmented until late ‘21, when the building was purchased. In Merode, his art collection was united. Patric got the idea to open to the general public after seeing the enthusiasm expressed by his friends. In September 2022, the idea became a reality.
