Work by Luc Tuymans in MAS collection

Luc Tuymans made a monumental work for the restored Royal Atheneum of Antwerp.

New in 2020

Like previous years, in 2020 the MAS has a lot to offer in 2020 with impressive Congolese art, a V-bomb in the pavilion, boats in the boulevard and a new interpretation of the viewing depot.

A journey through time

The escalators in the MAS didn't only take visitors up to the roof, they also allowed to travel through time with impressive photographs of the collection.

Cool Japan

A guide takes you on a tour and shows you some historical masterpieces. You'll learn that contemporary icons and the Japanese pop culture come from a long tradition.

Antwerp and Japan

Mutual focus

The fascination for Japan from Antwerp's side began early. And, conversely, Antwerp is no stranger to the Japanese either.

Art at the exhibition

In addition to work by 18th-century artist Katsushika Hokusai, known as 'the Rembrandt of Japan', contemporary art was also well represented in the exhibition.

The Conversion of Saul

The tile panel is internationally considered as the most refined evidence of sixteenth century ceramics from Antwerp.

Breaking Boundaries

Antwerp Olympic city

The organisation of the Games in Antwerp was a feat in and of itself, and were really groundbreaking. In this small exhibition, you can view posters, photos, trophies and more.
