The Primacy of the Everyday

Ensemble

The Primacy of the Everyday (with a reflection by Yevgenia Belorusets)

Anna Zvyagintseva celebrates the unheroic ordinary gestures which go unnoticed in the everyday life. War as such is opposed not so much to the vitality of life as to the quality of the ordinary as the fabric of social existence.

Kerry James Marshall (USA, 1955), Wilhelm Sasnal (Poland, 1972), Anna Zvyagintseva (Ukraine, 1986)

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.
