    NLENFR

    During the cultural city festival Antwerp Baroque 2018. Rubens Inspires, the M HKA, the Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp, juxtaposes the spirit of the baroque masters with the vision of contemporary top artists. With the exhibition Sanguine/Bloedrood (Blood Red), curator Luc Tuymans aims to overwhelm the visitor by placing key works from the baroque of, among others, Francisco de Zurbarán and Caravaggio, in dialogue with works by classical contemporary masters, such as On Kawara and Edward Kienholz, as well as new works by contemporary stars such as Zhang Enli, Takashi Murakami, Michaël Borremans, Sigmar Polke and Tobias Rheberger.

    The French multimedia visual artist Pierre Huyghe (b.1962), originally from Paris, lives and works in New York. His oeuvre consists of a series of visual experiments in the form of abstract-organic sculptures or fictitious video montages. Together they form a mental time journey; he zooms in on the essence of mankind as a coherent whole, and adds to that the unique element of imagination and creates, in so doing, imaginary and futuristic ideas.
