Preview – S & W & … 2

M HKA late, Opening

26 Nov 2026, 18:00 - 21:00


Be among the first to see how seven emerging Belgian artists reimagine the world of Suske & Wiske. Join us for the Preview of S & W & … 2 during Muhka LAAT.


About the exhibition

A year ago, S & W & … brought together existing work by eight visual artists inspired by the world of Suske & Wiske. The exhibition showed how the visual language and ideas of these Flemish comic-strip characters had shaped or inspired artists with very different practices.

For this second part, seven artists were invited to draw inspiration from Willy Vandersteen’s imagination:

  • Aline Bouvy
  • Kasper Bosmans
  • Kristof Santy
  • Pei-Hsuan Wang
  • Bram Demunter
  • Shirley Villavicencio Pizango
  • Sharon Van Overmeiren

Exploring the adventures of Suske & Wiske has inspired them to create works. These may take the form of a homage, commentary, critique, a playful nod or a combination of these.

The works enter into dialogue with one another and with an original design by Vandersteen for the 1953 album De Tartaarse Helm.


Practical information

The exhibition S & W & … 2 runs from 27 November 2026 to 10 January 2027 on floors 5+ and 6+.
