In 1981 Frank Demaegd founded Zeno X Gallery and started showing the work of architects and installation artists. In 1988 the painter Raoul De Keyser had an exhibition and two years later Luc Tuymans was presented for the first time. Zeno X Gallery has also worked with Marlene Dumas and Mark Manders for more than twenty five years. In 1996 a small factory was bought in Borgerhout and transformed into an additional space and storage. After more than 30 years Zeno X Gallery has moved the main focus of its program from the Antwerp South district to the East part of the city, Borgerhout. The existing Zeno X Storage was extended and is now connected with the neighboring building as it originally was in the first half of the 20th century when milk factory Schellekens was housed there. This expansion gives Zeno X the opportunity to mount more prominent and larger scale exhibitions. In over 35 years Zeno X Gallery has put together more than 200 exhibitions and attended more than 100 art fairs.
