“Street food is in my blood. I love its direct appeal to the senses without pretension. It is down to earth and that’s what draws me. To eat something with my hands is a true pleasure. Simple and delicious: that’s my philosophy of food.” - Simona. Today, street food has become known for more than just being a cheap way to eat.

In 75 recipes, Simona El-Harar takes us on a journey of flavours through Mediterranean street food from its simplest forms to its more complex ones. She explains where many of the different dishes come from - Turkey, Tunisia, Israel, or many other countries - and how these different dishes have impacted her life and her cooking.

Classic babka, Moroccan meat cigars, Hamentaschen cookies, pomegranate water ice, or sensational hummus with broad beans, all the dishes will make your mouth water and will make you want to cook them for your loved ones.

In Belgium, only the Spa-Francorchamps circuit can rival the history and prestige of the Chimay layout. Created in 1926 with the very first Grand Prix des Frontières, this road circuit has, over the decades, become a must-see event for lovers of speed, competition and pure emotion. On the winding roads of the “boot” of Hainaut, the greatest names have shone: Jacky Ickx, Didier de Radiguès, Paul Frère, the Pilette brothers, Lucien and Mauro Bianchi, as well as two-wheel giants such as Giacomo Agostini, Barry Sheene, Phil Read and Johnny Cecotto. Chimay has also welcomed Emerson Fittipaldi, James Hunt, Henri Pescarolo, Derek Bell, and even some unexpected figures such as Mister Bean and Christophe Dechavanne. Today, the spirit of the circuit remains intact: Supermoto in spring, Classic Bikes and the Open Trophy in summer, not to mention the spectacular European Bug-In, which draws thousands of Volkswagen and Beetle enthusiasts to Chimay every year.Text in English and French.

From the design of the first Cyclone 30 cyclotron to the global recognition of proton therapy, the narrative follows a path marked by breakthroughs, crises overcome, and strategic rebounds. It explores the technical, financial, and human challenges faced by an academic start-up that grew into an international player, balancing boldness with rigour, applied research with industrial performance. But IBA is more than a technological pioneer: it is a corporate citizen committed to advancing the common good. Its model is based on balancing the interests of stakeholders—patients, employees, customers, shareholders, communities, and the environment. Its mission — “to protect, enhance, and save lives” — is made tangible through the thousands of patients treated, the hundreds of accelerators installed worldwide, and a culture deeply rooted in trust, transparency, and long-term vision. Beyond machines and markets, IBA is a mindset: an attentive and daring organisation, faithful to its roots yet firmly focused on the future.

This is the long-awaited overview of the recent works of architect Stéphane Beel. As productive and versatile an architect as Stéphane Beel is, architectural criticism and reception of his work are never far behind - new works are followed almost immediately by new words. This combination of work and word has made Stéphane Beel into one of the most successful Belgian architects of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. From his oeuvre, eighteen projects have been selected that have never before appeared detail in a book. Each is described and commented on by one of the contributing authors. The book begins with an extensive introductory interview with the architect himself, in which - in eight thematic sections - the basic features of Beel's approach are discussed. The interview is entitled An Intense Order, which at once reflects the structure and the concept of this book: without putting forward a single, all-embracing interpretative system, it systematically endeavours to offer a variety of opportunities for capturing the spark that invariably lights up the work of Stéphane Beel. Text in English and Dutch.

Japan was isolated almost completely from the West for more than two hundred years, from 1641 to 1854. One of the first Westerners to penetrate that barrier and reveal fundamental information about the country – and the Far East in general – was Philipp Franz von Siebold (1796-1866), a doctor from Würzburg in Germany. He spent the period 1823 to 1829 on the small island of Dejima, a Dutch trading post in Nagasaki that was then the only point of contact between Japan and the West. Full of ambition, Siebold was sent from the Dutch East Indies to Japan with the task of gathering as much information as possible about the country, its geography, its people, religion, customs and traditional costumes. The ultimate aim was to use this information to boost Dutch trade. Working with Japanese artists including Kawahara Keiga and Hokusai, Siebold embarked on an unprecedented visual and scientific project, culminating in the book Nippon. In this publication of Nippon, we give Siebold’s work a new lease of life that lets us understand the Japan he saw. This edition includes all the original prints, with a commentary on the most compelling images. The introduction discusses the unique relationship between Japan and the Netherlands, Siebold’s life, his work on Dejima and the historical significance of Nippon. The thematic essays and image keys point out striking details and interesting stories, all with a view to achieving once again what Siebold sought to do all those years ago: let readers marvel at the incredible beauty of Japan.

Van Hemessen & Father brings a forgotten family of artistic pioneers back into the spotlight, thereby rewriting the story of the Antwerp Renaissance from a surprising perspective: that of a painter’s studio where father and children worked together, experimented, and left their mark on art history. The book serves as the catalogue for the exhibition of the same name at the Snijders&Rockoxhuis in Antwerp, which, in a modified form, will have a second venue at the National Gallery in London. The focus is on daughter Catharina van Hemessen, the earliest Southern Netherlandish Renaissance painter of whom signed works have survived. She painted as a woman in a man’s world, signed her work with self-assurance and garnered international admiration from art connoisseurs even in her own time. Her work bears witness to artistic finesse and intellectual independence. Her father, Jan Sanders van Hemessen, is regarded as a key figure in the artistic transition from Quinten Massijs to Pieter Bruegel the Elder, with an artistic output that hovered somewhere between medieval mysticism and humanist realism. In the bustling Antwerp of the 16th century, he developed into an influential master with a thriving studio.

Jeff Bark's Drunk Dad is a deeply intimate monograph in which he presents unbridled addiction. Not as spectacle, but as a beautiful escape. Shaped by memory and longing, and by a learned idea of masculinity that resists softness while quietly demanding it. Working alone, the photographer transformed his backyard garage into a filmic, Lynchian stage, hand building masterfully lit sets and unflinching still lives. The wonderment of Disney and the loneliness of Hopper inform the photos shot on location in and around his hometown in northern Minnesota. Each image feels like a fragment of a story - at once painfully honest and hauntingly ambiguous - inviting viewers to piece together the emotional landscape of a father's unravelling. The implosion of the American dream is palpable in almost every image.
