AMVK's first Gallery Show in the US

En 1978, l’école de recherche graphique, créée un peu moins de cinq années auparavant, commence à occuper un espace situé sur la rue de la Régence en face de l’église du Sablon. Sous l’impulsion d’Elisabeth Barmarin, alors directrice de l’école, et de discussions collectives organisées par les étudiant.e.s, cet espace, intitulé sobrement galerie erg, est organisé en autogestion par les étudiant.e.s, prenant en charge sa rénovation, sa programmation, sa gestion.

In the exhibition This Is Us, selected works from the four largest Flemish museums for contemporary art will be presented together for the very first time. Curator Fabian Flückiger chose artworks from the contemporary collections of M HKA, S.M.A.K., Mu.ZEE and M Leuven. With the artistic learning environment as his inspiration, he reflected on what these collections represent. What do they say about modern society and what can this teach visitors? The exhibition is divided into three chapters: The Art Institution, Living Spaces, and Telling Stories, which contain works by some fifty artists, more than half of whom live and work in Belgium. They also include seven new works, created specifically for this exhibition. This Is Us is a unique collaboration between the leading Flemish museums of contemporary art and Z33.

For the second edition of FAÇADE, a series of monumental works in the public space taking over the scaffolding at the site of the future KANAL-Centre Pompidou museum, artist Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven (AMVK) pays homage to the city.

For its summer show Ulrik presents “Intimacy” – an exhibition held in three bedrooms within the Brooklyn artist loft, Taaffe. Founded by Elise Duryee-Browner and Damon Sfetsios in 2013, the loft has historically presented exhibitions, cafe nights, and parties. Ulrik began by linking three artists to three residents based on explicit and potential relationships in the pairing. By taking the contributors’ own bedrooms as the starting point and mise en scène, the theme of intimacy becomes text and subtext.

Weerstand en (schijnbare) willekeur zijn terugkerende thema’s binnen het oeuvre van Belgische kunstenaar Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven. West presenteert jaarlijks een doorlopende overzichtsexpositie over kunstenaars voor wie het leven en de kunst onlosmakelijk met elkaar verbonden zijn.

Since 1974, Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven has been making drawings that emerge from her subconscious. She refuses to find logical meaning in her mindmaps. However, the drawings do enable her to make her perceptions and dreams more tangible. Kalligraphie was the first series of works Van Kerckhoven made upon her return home to Antwerp in 2007, following her residency at DAAD in Berlin and a stay in Shanghai.

Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven (AMVK) stelt het boek Veerkracht Thuis! voor aan de studenten en het publiek van KASK & Conservatorium in Gent. Ze gaf hier les van 1991 tot 2016.

Just like an artist. A bird moves between heaven and earth. It is a symbol of freedom and an enlightened mind. The bird is traditionally a messenger and observes with keen eyes. In mythology, the phoenix represents an eternal cycle of life and death. In ancient Rome, the will of the gods could be read from the flight of birds. The raven was, according to the Koran, the first teacher of man and the canaries in the coal mine have already done many heroic deeds. In short, these winged creatures deserve a worthy place.

Affiniteiten#5 is de vijfde editie van het jaarlijks terugkerende tentoonstellingsproject over kunstenaarskoppels die samen leven maar niet samen werken. Vernissage op zondag 19 februari 2023 van 15u tot 18u.

Exact vijf jaar na de succesvolle tentoonstelling ECCE HOMO. Zie de mens (2017-2018) - organiseert Galerie Geukens & De Vil opnieuw een grootschalige kunstwandeling in Antwerpen, rond één universeel thema: onze planeet.

Voor het jubileum van de Warande brengen we 25 kunstenaars samen die eerder in de Warande tentoonstelden. Ze komen niet alleen. We vroegen ieder van hen om op hun beurt iemand voor de toekomst te selecteren. Zo wordt de tentoonstelling ‘OUDE WIJN/NIEUWE ZAKKEN’ niet louter een terugkijken op wat ooit was, maar ook op wat nog komen zal.

Terwijl de collectie oude en moderne kunst van Vlaanderen terugkeert naar het gerenoveerde KMSKA (Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten Antwerpen), maakt de Vlaamse Gemeenschap zich op voor een tweede infrastructurele sprong voorwaarts die het museumlandschap verder naar een internationaal niveau tilt. Het regeerakkoord voorziet een nieuw gebouw voor het M HKA, waar ook de collectie hedendaagse kunst permanent zichtbaar zal worden binnen een consistent verhaal.

KAOS Expo #1 toont werk van 20 kunstenaars -al dan niet met een psychische kwetsbaarheid- die bij KAOS in residentie kwamen, waar we eerder mee samenwerkten of die we een warm hart toedragen.

Van 26 juni tot 2 oktober 2022 organiseren Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens (MDD), Museum van Deinze en de Leiestreek (mudel) en het Roger Raveel Museum (RRM) de 8e editie van de Biënnale van de Schilderkunst. Sinds 2008 presenteren de drie musea voor beeldende kunst aan de oevers van de Leie elke twee jaar gelijktijdig schilderkunst uit binnen- en buitenland. Dit feest van de schilderkunst vertrekt steeds vanuit de context en collectie van de drie musea aan de Leie.

Titled after Sergey Kuryokhin and Sergey Sholokhov's absurd 1991 mockumentary from the last days of the Soviet Union, the exhibition Lenin Was a Mushroom examines the 1990s – which we might define here as the period between the end of the Cold War and the beginning of the 'War on Terror’. During the transition towards a supposed unipolar world, and in simultaneity with new international attitudes in the artistic sphere, film and video art of the 1990s broadened perspectives of the visual kind.

An exhibition dedicated to digital art. Proof of Work, What's at Stake? will explore the possibilities of NFT-technology can bring to artists and the gallery.

The flat Earth, considered a metaphor, a thought experiment, and a belief falsely ascribed to the past, serves as a point of departure for reflecting on the changing roles of science and communication. The artists featured in this exhibition analyze seemingly contradictory worldviews and identify political apparatuses, technological infrastructures, and social relationships that affect our knowledge and interpretation of reality.

The archival exhibition on the lower floor of the Kunsthalle focuses on a selection of women artists who have enriched the Kunsthalle Bern’s program with their substantial artistic contributions ever since its founding.

Risquons-Tout is an ambitious, thematic group exhibition that explores the potential of transgression and unpredictability. It examines how art challenges the homogenisation of thought in the now infamous echo chambers of our overcrowded info-sphere.

The real beginning of the 20th century was World War I. This war 1914 – 1918 was one of the deadliest conflicts in history with estimated 21 million deaths. In 1918 it was followed by the big 1918 influenza pandemic with over 100 million deaths.100 Years ago Paul Van Ostaijen (° Antwerp, 1896 - 1928) wrote his masterpiece “Bezette Stad” – “Occupied City”. The Covid – 19 pandemic seems to echo this catastrophe and will bring us to big shifts not in the least to the consequences of the climate crisis, the end of old capitalism and old politics. The real beginning of the 21st century Is now! We present work by artists of the gallery and some new and classic artists as they always have been the canaries in society’s coal mine.

Sander Vloebergs presenteert de eerste resultaten van zijn experimenteel artistiek multimediaproject 'Geliefde Lichamen'. In samenwerking met kunstenaars en academici uit verschillende disciplines onderzoekt hij de potentie van een heilig lichaam in de moderne sacrale ruimte.

This exhibition is an exercise in weaving—or yielding. How can the works of three artists who don’t know each other, have never met and have developed their practices in three different contexts, dialogue, connect and intersect—and eventually merge into one and the same exhibition?

An exhibition inspired by a novel, a city and a scene

Two solo exhibitions at Zeno X Gallery: ANNE-MIE VAN KERCKHOVEN and PHILIP METTEN

Group exhibition curated by Maryam Najd in the frame of Antwerp Art Weekend 2019.

»Artistic Intelligence« explores the extent to which artists make use of the latest technical possibilities of artificial intelligence in their artistic practice. While artificial neural networks and the algorithmic processes that enable »machine learning« have long been established in industry and business, dominating everyday human life, the associated advantages and conveniences of these technologies are counterbalanced by forms of censorship and surveillance.

De vloed van beelden die op de mensen af komt nam in de voorbije eeuw exponentieel toe door de algemene verspreiding van nieuwe media. Onze geest krijgt alsmaar makkelijker toegang tot realiteiten die voorbij onze zintuiglijke waarneming liggen en voert ons naar abstracte en zelfs imaginaire werelden.

Het tentoonstellingsproject Middle Gate II – Het verhaal van Dimpna is een samenwerking tussen het M HKA, Museum van Hedendaagse Kunst Antwerpen, en cultuurcentrum de Werft in Geel. Middle Gate 2 is het vervolg op de tentoonstelling Middle Gate van Jan Hoet in Geel in 2013.

Punk, Beeld & Storm in Antwerpen 1978-2018 is een tentoonstellingsproject van de Antwerpse Academie rond Punk en Postpunk in Antwerpen, hun invloed op de kunsten en hun actuele relevantie. Elke stroming behoeft ketters. Veertig jaar nadat de punkbeweging in Antwerpen een gezicht kreeg met The Kids, onderzoekt ‘Naughty Kids’ hoe de beeldenstorm van punk en postpunk nieuwe sporen trok door de meer klassieke beeldende kunsten, muziek, mode, literatuur en grafische vormgeving in Antwerpen. De tentoonstelling brengt ook in kaart op welke manier de Do It Yourself-attitude vandaag nog aan de orde is.

Quando eu misturo obras antigas e novas, juntamente com teorias e listas que são queridas para mim, este esforço deve ser lido como um acúmulo de testemunhos da minha visão de mundo utópico.

The exhibition The Welfare State does not look back with nostalgia at the welfare state in its ‘classical’ form as a utopian blueprint for an egalitarian (and homogenous) society in postwar Western Europe. It does not invite artists to ‘illustrate’ political and social engagement. But it does ask some fundamental questions. What is the ‘imaginary’ of the welfare state? Does it have a ‘form’? Can it be ‘shown’?

Curated by Chris Fitzpatrick and Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven, this expansive exhibition will be the artist's most comprehensive presentation to date, with 178 works produced between 1975 and 2015. Many of these are being exhibited for the first time, installed in an interwoven and anti-chronological configuration to show Van Kerckhoven's practice as an interminable continuum of forms and ideas.
