The BOZARSHOP is a collaborative project between BOZAR, the international design group Base, and the Spanish art book publisher Actar.
The BOZARSHOP will be the first international and multidisciplinary arts shop in Belgium. The shop will occupy the entire 360-square-metre retail space of the Centre for Fine Arts on rue Ravenstein/Ravensteinstraat. The visitor can go to the shop from Monday to Sunday from 10am to 10pm. Its extensive stock will include books, CDs, DVDs, magazines, postcards, and a variety of gift items. The choice of items on sale will be inspired by BOZAR's programme and by what is being shown in the Cinémathèque Royale de Belgique | Koninklijk Belgisch Filmarchief. Particular attention will be paid to children and there will be a special kids’ corner.

- 10,000 art books: contemporary and modern art, architecture, design, photography, typography, fashion, music, theatre, dance… Books in Dutch, French, and English.
