Activities

The Cinema was born out of the collaboration between the M HKA and De Studio, between a contemporary art museum with a film function (the former Cinema Zuid) and a dynamic multidisciplinary cultural house in the heart of the city.

This evening offers a diverse and unfiltered insight into sex work. Discover how sex work spaces operate, the choices and challenges involved, and how the people working there use their bodies, intimacy, and fantasies in their practice.

Meet Cécile B. Evans. She is an American-Belgian artist living and working in Saint-Denis. Evans’ work examines the value of emotion and its rebellion as it comes into contact with ideological, physical, and technological structures. 

This special evening event combines the Belgian premiere of Nástio Mosquito’s film 'When Changing You Mind Gets You Killed' at De Cinema, with a talk by curator Gabi Ngcobo.

For his participation in the FRONT ROW artist talks programme at M HKA, Halloubi will screen his film work Un après-midi à Larache (2015-2016) about writer and activist Jean Genet, before a conversation on his filmic practice.

On Saturday, February 10th, at 19:00 hrs, internationally renowned artist Jim Shaw will be at The Cinema for a conversation with curator Anne-Claire Schmitz. They will discuss his work and his new solo exhibition, The Ties That Bind.
