Screen is a mobile composed of six pieces of opaque, milky-white Perspex sheet that can be suspended in a variety of arrangements. In this way it looks as if they are to be used as projection screens for an image or idea that still has to be materialised – a symbol of the dynamics of ‘projection’ in its broadest sense. Each time this work enters into direct dialogue with the surrounding works and space and puts them in a different ‘light’.

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.
