Description

S.M.A.K. Highlights for a Future is the first catalogue of the collection of the S.M.A.K. Municipal Museum of Contemporary Art in Ghent since its founding in 1999. The generous selection of works in this book offers a representative cross-section from a collection comprising more than two thousand works, from familiar classics, to new masterpieces, to recent acquisitions. In this way, the S.M.A.K. not only looks at the past, but first and foremost to the present and the future.
