Event

Borderline
03 September 2016 - 30 September 2016

A - Tower, Antwerpen

Discover the opera and ballet season in 12 original paintings and four drawings on the 20th floor of the A-tower.

Inspired by opera and Ballet Vlaanderen productions, artist Koen van den Broek supplied 12 canvases: new work, complemented by a selection of existing work. He is an atypical Belgian artist who takes his inspiration from an international context. As such, his works find their way to galleries, museums and collectors worldwide. Especially for this exhibition, a large number of original works were brought together from private collections. A revelation for those who are not (yet) familiar with the work of van den Broek and a surprise for those who are: for the first time, human forms reluctantly cast their shadow on the images in the artist’s often architectural abstract works.

From 4 September to 30 September on the 20th floor of the A-Tower, De Keyserlei 5, 2018 Antwerp.

The M HKA aspires to play a leading role in Flanders and to extend its international profile by building upon Antwerp's avant-garde tradition. The M HKA bridges the relationship between artistic questions and wider societal issues, between the international and the regional, artists and public, tradition and innovation, reflection and presentation. Central here is the museum's collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.
