The museum exhibits, collects, researches and mediates contemporary art in its own facilities, which include the arthouse Cinema Zuid, and in dynamic collaboration with partners in and outside Flanders, such as the European L’Internationale network, which also comprises MACBA in Barcelona, Moderna Galerija in Ljubljana and Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven as well as the Július Koller Society in Bratislava and the KwieKulik Archive in Warsaw. M HKA is one of the European institutions behind the art journal Afterall, which is edited in London. Our approach to art is experimental and research-orientated, which is not least reflected in the ongoing in-house development of the Ensemble Bank, a new digital tool for research, documentation and mediation. M HKA is an open house for artists and for the general public, with a comprehensive programme of educational activities and public events.
