Winter Luxembourg Gala – Melusin’art
Art for water
Saturday 2nd December 2023
Melusin’art, will be hosted at Casino Luxembourg, and will run for two days with a vernissage on Friday December 1st, and a Gala on the evening of Saturday 2nd December. The exhibition brings together 20 artists from Luxembourg and Cameroon to raise funding for the water crisis in Central Africa.
Melusina has long been a symbol of both Luxembourg and Water. Count Siegfried, Luxembourg’s founder, encountered Melusina by the Alzette River. Enchanted by her beauty, it is by the water that he eventually found her again after a long quest, so he could propose to his beloved.
Melusina had a unique condition meant to ensure a happy and long-lasting marriage. As the Alzette River had brought them together, she was to enjoy a single day every week, alone with water. Not only was water the element which brought them together, but it was the only one which could and would set them apart.
