last week: 10th Biennial of Painting
featuring Elen Braga
at MUDEL – Museum of Deinze and the Lys Region, BE
through October 18, 2026

‘Surrounded by historical examples from the expressionist oeuvre of sculptor and wood engraver Jozef Cantré, as well as painters Gustave De Smet and Frits Van den Berghe, this mudel biennial highlights contemporary artists working across a range of media. Through these artistic crossovers, they remain faithful to their original visual language and message, while exploring the new possibilities offered by other techniques. The works of fifteen artists engage in a dialogue spanning painting, graphic arts, sculpture, ceramics, textiles, installation, and conceptual art.’

with works by:
Kasper Bosmans, Elen Braga, Jozef Cantré, Enk De Kramer, Vida Dena, Gustave De Smet, Mae Dessauvage, Pélagie Gbaguidi, Sebastian Kulbaka, William Ludwig Lutgens, Nayra Martin Reyes, Roger Raveel, ROA, Abigail Tulis, Frits Van den Berghe en Tinus Vermeersch.

‘The end of a movie evokes a variety of feelings among viewers. Those who leave the theater before the end credits roll are already somewhat familiar with the film and can save time by avoiding the line to exit the theater, allowing them to catch other shows later that day or night. Among those who wait for the screen to go black after the final credits roll, some follow the etiquette of a good moviegoer as a sign of respect for the film, just as there are others who have time to spare and can be patient before leaving the theater—theaters that are supposed to be designed with an architecture that allows for the efficient evacuation of people. The issue of movie theaters is a hot topic these days, given the liberalization of real-time access to cinematic content through various media and plat- forms. While we wait to see what happens next, we can take away that the end and the beginning are two sides of the same reel.’

JEAN KATAMBAYI MUKENDI : KODE
at Wouters Gallery, Brussels
through October 10, 2026

“In the exhibition KODE, multiple works are brought together that focus on language and data within Jean Katambayi Mukendi’s artistic oeuvre. These ‘technological inventions’ are always present in his work and could be described as his medium, maybe more so than pen and paper, or ink and cellulose. They are his sign-nature. Letters and numbers are transformed lines, and they become single data or reference points, also known as datums, when given specific meaning (Gottlieb 2018). Datum means ‘something given’ in Latin, originating from the verb dare, meaning ‘to give’. Datum also means date in Dutch, and the first symbolic use of line sequences on rocks or notches on bones is considered a calendrical tool, or a way to structure time and count the days or months. The sequence, length, curve, shape, rhythm, volume and value of intersecting lines are at the core of Jean’s word- and world-thinking, and word and world-making. In the 1981 song “Wordy Rappinghood” by the American new wave band Tom Tom Club, they ask: “What are words worth?” Jean knows (see also Als ik het wist, 2026); words are worth everything, everywhere, all the time. They turn noumenons into phenomena. Everything is there, for a reason, waiting to be hallucinated. Just like for our hominin ancestors, lines represent strings of thought, a means to structure and comprehend our chaotic and constantly changing world. Code is everywhere. It’s all in the I of the beholder. (...)”

‘My proposal for Art On Paper is an open, L-shaped booth featuring a large charcoal drawing extending along the entire length of the picture rails, evoking a field of o***m poppies—a plant used in particular to produce o***m and its derivatives, such as morphine and he**in. This large mural serves as a backdrop for a series of framed colour drawings, each measuring 41 × 30 cm, in which vivid hues give rise to hybrid forms, floral motifs, hallucinatory faces and ghostly portraits that hover between the organic and the vegetal.‘

opening now: ELI CORTIÑAS
The Machine Dreams of Smoke
at Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid
September 23 - March 8, 2027
opening Tuesday September 22

7pm - conversation between Eli Cortiñas and Amanda de la Garza, Reina Sofia’s deputy artistic director

8pm - public opening

‘The Machine Dreams of Smoke arises from the Museo Reina Sofía’s invitation to Eli Cortiñas to revisit The Most Given of Givens, a video-graphic work the artist made in 2016, and a piece recently acquired for the Museo Reina Sofía Collections. The exhibition returns to, expands upon and updates research started by Cortiñas more than a decade ago, in a work which addresses the relationships between the history of cinema, the history of museums and recent digital culture from a perspective that reveals the complex colonial apparatus that moulds the gaze and the construction of imagery and knowledge. Part of contemporary historiography presumes that history is not neutral, that all historical narratives involve a selection, an interpretation that gives rise to omissions and dominant historical narratives that have helped to consolidate the power of certain social groups. Cortiñas suggests, moreover, that algorithms are not neutral: each new technological tool at our disposal is a device loaded with a symbolic function that participates in the configuration of new epistemological regimes. Ultimately, Eli Cortiñas invites us to be wary of the apparent transparency of images, technology and museum apparatus, asking us to question these visual and cognitive systems not only for what they show, but also for the power relations that sustain them, and for the contexts, bodies, memories and historical experiences that produce and cross through them.’

Parallel to her solo show Eli Cortiñas was invited to curate a video and film program for the museum:

On Images and Disobedience. Carte Blanche to Eli Cortiñas
September 24 - October 2, 2026

‘On Images and Disobedience. Carte Blanche to Eli Cortiñas is an audiovisual series curated by artist Eli Cortiñas, in dialogue with her installation The Machine Dreams of Smoke, on view in the Museo Reina Sofía. The programme underscores the concerns and confluences

RP M HKA - Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp • Did you know Jean Katambayi Mukendi painted ‘Dunia’ on site, specifically for ‘RATIO’, his IN SITU commission at M HKA? ⁠
⁠
In ‘RATIO’, artist Jean Katambayi Mukendi questions the dualities that shape our world: the natural and the artificial, growth and destruction, wanted and discarded materials, and the relationship between⁠
resources and power. ⁠
⁠
‘RATIO’ remains on view until 27 September 2026. Plan your final visit via muhka.be⁠
