Canada / Tobacco

Jef Lambrecht took part in a travel-work program called 'Belgen in de Wereld' in the summer of 1967. It was an important first grand trip; visiting New York, working on a farm in the Ontario Tobacco belt, sightseeing in Toronto, Niagra Falls but also visiting the Expo '67 in Montreal. It was an eye-opening trip and could be seen as a coming of age... after his return he would leave home for university in Louvian.

 

Jef Lambrecht pursued many investigations into Tobacco during his artistic researches and activities

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.
