Kunsthal Extra City exhibits contemporary visual art in a welcoming and unique setting. As a middle-sized, Antwerp-based art organisation, we are firmly rooted in Belgium’s artistic ecosystem and offer a hub where artists, art lovers and city residents can come together.

At its new location in the former Dominican Monastery, Kunsthal Extra City seeks to become a bastion of the visual arts with a solid reputation both in Belgium and internationally. In synergy with our audience and partners, we seek to be a meaningful player in the artistic field, with an inclusive and committed artistic direction. We offer opportunities to young artists as well as a platform for established figures to experiment. Our visitors can think of us as a sustainable place in the city where relevant art projects can serve as a source of inspiration. In our search for meaning, we dare to make radical choices, guided by a deliberately open-minded – even slightly naive – attitude.
