For people who are late for Christmas presents, that don’t know what to buy or where to find a nice gift, yesterday night at Carre Rotondes in Luxembourg there was a very particular art market. They call it
Troc and Brol: an art market where artists propose their artworks that the artists don’t use/want anymore. Because at
Troc and Brol, you can’t buy anything with money: you can only offer something for exchange such as a homemade cake, a bottle of wine, gift card in a shop, clothes or your house for a weekend. With a pen and few post-it you can start to offer what you have and at the end of the evening you will find out if the artist has accepted your offer. A different and perhaps more genuine way for people to enjoy and live art.
