Muhka

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.

Bruno Zhu’s In Situ commission materializes an imposing set of revolving walls hung on the two central pillars in the exhibition space. Operating like two gears engaged in each other, the artist’s site-responsive passageway disrupts the open space, forcefully creating two separate zones.

Janina Fritz creates sculptures and spatial installations that explore the tensions between the body, architecture, and controlled environments, breaking boundaries with poetic and explosive forms.

‘Journey to the Stars’ delves into Panamarenko’s fascination with the cosmos. By showcasing major works such as Bing of the Ferro Lusto, Flying Cigar Called Flying Tiger, and De Grote Plumbiet together for the first time, complemented by calculations, sketches, and photographs from the archive, the artist’s thought process and imagination are brought to light.

Discover the magical universe of Panamarenko. The Panamarenko House offers an unmissable journey featuring flying backpacks, walking chickens, and a real helicopter platform on the roof.

On the last Thursday of every month, M HKA is open until 9 p.m. During these evenings, you’re welcome to explore the current exhibitions, along with a special programme of activities.

The Cinema was born out of the collaboration between the M HKA and De Studio, between a contemporary art museum with a film function (the former Cinema Zuid) and a dynamic multidisciplinary cultural house in the heart of the city.
