Antony Gormley's 'Geestgrond' at KMSKA Antwerp

The KMSKA – Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp presents 'Geestgrond', a major exhibition by British sculptor Antony Gormley (born 1950, London), running until September 20, 2026. Curated by Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, the show explores Gormley's five-decade investigation into the relationship between the body, space, and spiritual experience, framed by the question: 'What can sculpture do and what does it feel like to be alive?' The exhibition occupies both interior galleries and exterior spaces of the museum, featuring monumental works that engage with the architecture and the surrounding environment. Gormley's practice, known for its focus on the human form as a site of perception and consciousness, finds a resonant setting in the historic KMSKA. The show marks a significant moment for the museum, which reopened in 2022 after an 11-year renovation.
