The Geopolitics of Infrastructure brings together artists who consider the enchantment and power relations of infrastructure. It also considers the possibilities of artistic imagination in conceptualising new and alternative infrastructural models.

The first institutional solo exhibition of Özgür Kar in Belgium, MALAISE, features a new site-specific installation. The presentation includes theatrical sound and video installation that explores themes of collective unease, stagnation, and endurance.

From 1974 to 1982, cultural centre King Kong was a vibrant space in Antwerp where film, debate, and activism came together. In addition to offering a broad spectrum of film classics and contemporary auteur cinema, King Kong also served as a platform for socially critical documentaries, feminist films, queer cinema, and revolutionary Third Cinema.

The M HKA collection is always evolving, and we live in times of change. In 2025, M HKA will present a renewed and concise collection display featuring around thirty outstanding works by Flemish artists, including those who live and work (or have lived and worked) here.

In 2024, Antwerp Art once again awarded the Graduation Prize to two young artists from KASKA and SLA. The prize supports emerging artists with a cash award and an exhibition during Antwerp Art Weekend.

In 2024, Sean Peleman won the Hugo Roelandt Prize with his graduation project in the programme Graphic Art and Drawing at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp. The Muhka invited him to make a presentation for INBOX during the exhibition Hugo Roelandt – The End is a New Beginning. (spring 2025)

The End is a New Beginning was Hugo Roelandt’s first museum overview exhibition, marking ten years since his passing.

With Out, Bruno Zhu transformed a museum gallery into an impressive labyrinth of rotating walls, inviting visitors to shift boundaries and look anew.

Leo Reijnders moves effortlessly between disciplines, roles, and worlds – an exhibition as layered as his drawings and performances.

Showing Off is an annual art project in which the children and young people of the Hospital School are introduced to modern art and create their own artworks. Each year, the project concludes with an exhibition at Muhka – this year marks the tenth edition, in collaboration with De Leerexpert Ziekenhuisschool.

Mash Up was the first major retrospective featuring the work of Anthea Hamilton. The exhibition provided a unique opportunity to share an in-depth reading and articulation of Hamilton’s practice. At the same time, it opened up unprecedented perspectives and offered new interpretations.

The exhibition "Aanwinst" ran in spring 2024 at C-mine Genk, introducing visitors to a selection of contemporary artworks from the impressive collection of the Flemish Community.
