Working Title: (Re) Discovery : New dialogues in the KMSKA
VENUE: KMSKA, Royal Museum of Fine arts, Antwerp
DATES: March/April 2025 > July/August 2024
International masterpieces (postwar and contemporary art) from Belgian private collections are brought into dialogue/juxtaposition with the museum’s Old Masters collection.
Via the already existing themes of the halls and through the dialogues, we point to differences and similarities; past versus today.
We emphasise is on the formal, substantive and aesthetic relevance of the dialogues.
