Peter Paul Rubens overwhelms you with colour and movement, James Ensor takes you into a world of masks and mystery, and Jan Van Eyck reveals the wonders of meticulous detail. You will encounter Rik Wouters in all his lightness and power and discover contemporary artists such as Marlene Dumas and Berlinde De Bruyckere, whose work exposes the human condition in all its vulnerability.
At KMSKA, centuries of art history flow seamlessly into one another. You wander from work to work, moved by the contrasts, silences, and stories that linger. This is no ordinary museum, but a world where culture breathes. Where art not only displays, but also evokes. Where your gaze slows down and your senses are heightened. Where the familiar offers comfort and the unknown stimulates curiosity.
As a dynamic creative hub, KMSKA brings art to life in countless ways. From bold temporary exhibitions and engaging activities to late-night experiences during KMSKA LAAT. Expect a vibrant mix of visual art, live performances, and unexpected encounters. We team up with artists, performers, and cultural partners to keep things fresh and inspiring. No visit is ever the same.
The KMSKA is a place for encounters and imagination. It is a place for thinkers, feelers and discoverers. For those who seek beauty, or something that challenges them. An art experience that you can see and feel? You will find it at KMSKA.
