The Centre for Fine Arts in Brussels, also known as Bozar, has suffered significant structural damage after a fire broke out on January 18. 
Nearly 100 firefighters were called to the scene Monday afternoon following reports of smoke plumes billowing from the museum’s roof. The fire was contained by 9:30 pm.
Where or how the fire began is currently unknown. Most of the initial destruction was contained to the roof. However, the performing arts space below, Henry Le Boeuf Hall, suffered significant water damage from the rescue effort and subsequent rain.
Exhibition spaces near the hall were also affected, but to what degree remains a question as the extent of the destruction is still being investigated. Representatives from the institution did not immediately respond to Artnet News’s request for comment, but told the Brussels-based news outlet Bruzz that no artworks were damaged.
