vers univers

Ensemble

The Dutch poet Frans Vanderlinde called his magazine Vers Univers (six numbers from May 1966 to September 1967) magazine for evolutionary poetry. The term refers to a poetry that is still in development and serves as an umbrella term for concrete, spatial, auditory, visual and audiovisual poetry. He formed an international editorial board with Paul de Vree, Pierre Garnier and the Scottish poet Ian Hamilton Finlay.

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.
