M HKA - Museum of Modern Art — Attraction in Antwerp

Definitely worth a stop when visiting Antwerp, especially if you're in the area (its a short walk from the Grote Markt). The permanent collection (the free part) of the museum was kind of disappointing, mostly because although the art was cool, the descriptions were almost nonexistent and it could have benefitted from some additional context.

The most impressing thing in some rooms were the colored neon lights against the wall just to fill an empty space...There is also a "masterpiece" in the shape of a pyramid, built by topping one on the other 20-30 transparent plastic bags filled with water: wow! Save yourself 30 minutes of your lifetime and 14 euros of the entry ticket. You've...
