This Is Us » at Z33, Muhka

+++ This exhibition ran from 1 October 2023 until 18 February 2024 at Z33 in Hasselt. +++

In the exhibition ‘This Is Us’, selected works from the four largest Flemish museums for contemporary art were presented together for the very first time. Curator Fabian Flückiger had chosen artworks from the contemporary collections of M HKA, S.M.A.K., Mu.ZEE and M Leuven. With the artistic learning environment as his inspiration, he reflected on what these collections represent. What do they say about modern society and what can this teach visitors?

The exhibition was divided into three chapters: The Art Institution, Living Spaces, and Telling Stories, which contained works by some fifty artists, more than half of whom live and work in Belgium. They also included seven new works, created specifically for this exhibition.
