Collection display

The Muhka collection is always in motion, and we live in times of change.

In 2025, Muhka presents a renewed, concise collection display that, through around thirty key works, features Flemish artists: artists who live and work here, now or in the past – including Marcel Broodthaers, Panamarenko, Luc Tuymans, Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven, Otobong Nkanga and Laure Prouvost – as well as artists with a connection to Flanders, such as Marlene Dumas, Jimmie Durham, Gordon Matta-Clark and Nicola L. They are placed in dialogue with international artists from the collection of the Flemish Community, including Cady Noland, Barbara Kruger, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Taus Makhacheva and Hüseyin Bahri Alptekin. The collection display starts from the post-war avant-garde in Antwerp and uses the past as a platform for understanding the multipolar world of today and the future, with the three collection perspectives – image, action and society – as its guide.

The freely accessible permanent collection display features work by Marina Abramović, Chantal Akerman, Hüseyin Bahri Alptekin, Marcel Broodthaers, David Claerbout, Lili Dujourie, Marlene Dumas, Jimmie Durham, Andrea Fraser, Anna-Bella Geiger, Craigie Horsfield, Ilya & Emilia Kabakov, Nikita Kadan, Barbara Kruger, Nicola L., Taus Makhacheva, Gordon Matta-Clark, Cady Noland, Otobong Nkanga, Panamarenko, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Laure Prouvost, Ayman Ramadam, Chris Reinecke, Oksana Shachko, Nancy Spero, Walter Swennen, Luc Tuymans and Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven.
