Nomadic Monument for Gaza
13 – 22 March

As part of the spring exhibition we refuse_d, M HKA is bringing the Nomadic Monument for Gaza to Antwerp — a travelling, interactive installation that commemorates, raises awareness and stimulates conversation. The monument is an initiative of an ad hoc collective of artists and architects from The Hague, accompanied by the HOPE Foundation, an organisation that supports children in conflict areas in building meaningful lives through art education. In collaboration with Cloud Force One, Het Toneelhuis, Uitgeverij Jurgen Maas and Tommy Simoens Gallery, a public programme is being developed around the monument, with discussions, exhibitions and performances that explore Palestinian culture and themes such as resilience, solidarity and resistance.

About M HKA / Mission Statement

The M HKA is a museum for contemporary art, film and visual culture in its widest sense. It is an open place of encounter for art, artists and the public. The M HKA aspires to play a leading role in Flanders and to extend its international profile by building upon Antwerp's avant-garde tradition. The M HKA bridges the relationship between artistic questions and wider societal issues, between the international and the regional, artists and public, tradition and innovation, reflection and presentation. Central here is the museum's collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.
