Over 100, 000 Belgian refugees fled to Britain in 1914 to escape the German invasion of their country. Among them many artists took refuge in Wales. This exhibition focuses on Valerius de Saedeleer, George Minne and Gustave van de Woestyne and on the painter Edgar Gevaert during their enforced exile in Wales.
