On 25 September 2022, the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp (KMSKA) will reopen its doors to the public, after a radical rebuilding and expansion during the last 10 years.

M Leuven welcomes the eighteenth recognised masterpiece to its collection. The statue is a very interesting and high-quality piece that provides an international context and reference for the museum's rich collection of late-medieval sculptures from the Netherlands. The masterpiece is a Maria Lactans from the early 13th century made in Verona.

The Kunsthalle München is showcasing masterpieces of Belgian modern art from circa 1860 to 1960. With some 130 paintings, graphic works and sculptures from the collection of KMSKA, the exhibition illustrates how the art of this period constantly re-explored the boundaries between fantasy and reality.

The Flemish Community has acquired a drawing by Peter Paul Rubens that was believed to be lost. The work is included in the Flemish List of Masterpieces and the Museum Plantin-Moretus has it on long-term loan.

KMSKA and Mu.ZEE have each launched a new website for their collections. For this, both museums are making good use of the digital infrastructure of the Flemish Art Collection.
