John Körmeling

° 1951

Born in Amsterdam ().

John Körmeling studied architecture. But he does not like linear solutions, compromises, or purely functional or decorative things. So it is easier for him to use his energy, creativity and absurd ideas as an artist rather than as an architect, although his fascination with space can be felt in all his work.

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.
