On Saturday June 8, M HKA Antwerp kicks off its summer programming with The Lives of Animals, a group exhibition that challenges you to see your relationship with animals differently.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn this exhibition, we combine literature, philosophy and art to challenge conventional ideas about animals.\u201d explains Joanna Zieli\u0144ska, the curator.<\/p>\n

Each of us knows animal stories, they are part of our collective imagination. From childhood, we observe animals in all kinds of circumstances.

The Lives of Animals is inspired by the novel of the same name by J.M. Coetzee and exhibits the work of more than thirty artists, including Aleksandra Waliszewska, Katarzyna Krakowiak, Pierre Bismuth, Melanie Bonajo, Elen Braga, Sue Cue, Piero Gilardi, Rebecca Horn, Ad Minoliti, Panamarenko, Lin May Saeed and Nicol\u00e1s Garc\u00eda Uriburu.<\/p>\n

Untitled (Tiger) \u00a9 Aleksandra Waliszewska<\/p><\/div>\n

Aleksandra Waliszewska<\/strong><\/a> (1976), is a polish painter known for her dark, atmospheric paintings that are steeped in art historical erudition. In fact, Waliszewska considers herself a contemporary heir to the Symbolist movement of the turn of the last century. Empowered female protagonists dominate her paintings, frequently depicting apocalyptic scenes populated by animals, imaginary creatures, zombies, hybrid monsters.

Absolute beginners – installation \u00a9 2024 Katarzyna Krakowiak<\/p><\/div>\n

Katarzyna Krakowiak<\/a><\/strong> \u00a0(1980), \u00a0is a polish artist who creates sculptures, performances, objects, compositions and sound installations that investigate languages used to describe architecture. Her goal is to generate acoustic environments allowing viewers-listeners to become part of the artwork and encounter architecture at the level of sound. She also identifies as a gardener, tuning in with and learning from the soil and plants on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

Central here is the museum’s collection with its ongoing acquisitions, as well as related areas of management and research.<\/p>\n
