"Wellicht onder invloed van doorgewinterde kunst-party-animals als Harry Heirmans, Jef Lambrecht, Jan van Veen en Wout Vercammen, die ons nu al acht jaar lang het enige juiste, volstrekt compromisloze voorbeeld geven met hun maandelijkse Jour Fixes in de off-Broadway galerie Factor 44 te Borgerhout."--DM, Oktober 2003

Factor 44 was an Antwerp art gallery located in the Bleekhofstraat co-founded by Harry Heirmans and Chris Straetling.

Factor 44 is an amalgamation of two exhibition spaces, 'Inexistent' (1987-92) and 'Quarantine' (1992-95) operating in Antwerp. In 1995 two derelict buildings situated in Borgerhout were bought and (partially)renovated until 1996,- when the first exhibition opened that year. The name 'Factor 44' was given during the foundation-meeting in 1996 of a loose grouping of artists: Carlos Montalvo, Emilio lopez-Menchero, Jirina Nebesarova, Anne-Mie van Kerckhoven , Fréderic Tolmatcheff, Danny De Vos, Jef Lambrecht, Laetitia Yalon, Guy Rombouts, Guche Vercammen, Monica Droste, Jörgen Voordeckers, Madelon & Charlotte , Lieve Lambrecht, Corine Bertrand, Harry Heirmans, Herman Delahaye, Chris Straetling, Wout Vercammen...
