Brussels gallery Super Dakota to close after 15 years with Adrian Geller finale
Super Dakota, a gallery in Brussels in Belgium, will close at the end of October after 15 years.
Its final show is a solo exhibition, a show devoted to a single artist, for Adrian Geller. That is according to ARTnews, which published the closure news on 9 October 2026.
Geller is a Swiss artist born in 1997. He comes from Basel in Switzerland, is based in Paris in France and works in Normandy in France. His practice explores the overlap of social behaviours, craftsmanship, tales and myths, according to his gallery page. It is a mix of everyday habits and old stories, told through making.
He is represented by Super Dakota in Brussels, alongside Tanya Leighton, which has spaces in Berlin in Germany and Los Angeles in the United States, according to his own biography. Representation, in gallery language, means a gallery works with an artist over time to show and sell the work. Having two galleries in different cities lets an artist reach new audiences without relying on one room alone.
The goodbye has been on the calendar for weeks. On gallery Instagram, the gallery said under its handle @superdakota that it was closed for the summer break and would reopen on 10 September with a solo show by Geller. Its website lists a show titled "C’est vous que ce village là-bas attend pour s’éveiller à l'existence" running from 10 September to 17 October 2026. A separate exhibition page calls "Idle hands are the devil's workshop" Geller's first personal exhibition at Super Dakota. Both listings remain live on the gallery's channels in early October.
What makes this stand out is the double ending. One artist gets his first personal moment in the space, and that same moment becomes the last show before the doors shut. For regulars, that gives the run extra weight. It is rare to know in advance that you are seeing the end.
Galleries like this work as a meeting point. They give artists a room to test new work, and give the public a free way to see it up close. When a space like that shuts, the artists move on, but the address drops off the map for art lovers. That is why final shows often draw old friends as well as new faces.
If you are in Brussels, the window is short. The September show runs into mid-October, with closure to follow at the end of the month. Go soon. You will not get another chance. Do not miss it.
