An exhibition on travel and coming home commemorates 50 years of migration from Morocco and Turkey to Belgium. Bülent Öztürk and Mashid Mohadjerin, two Antwerp artists, worked on this theme.
When the German army occupied Belgium in 1914, it suddenly became almost impossible for the Belgian immigrants in the United States to contact family members. How did the war affect their lives?
Interactive tour, based on migration stories from the past and present. For secondary school pupils. Supplementary teaching materials available for technical and vocational secondary education (TSO and BSO).
Donors tend to fade into the background behind the objects they have given to the museum. But to celebrate our anniversary, we are bringing them out into the limelight. Photographer Koen Broos has turned his camera on 10 of them: one for each year of the museum’s existence.
The Red Star Line and the Antwerp painter Eugeen Van Mieghem are inextricably linked. His paintings and drawings are a haunting testimonial of the port activities and feature the thousands of migrants who departed to America.
