MAS – Museum Aan de Stroom
by timvan on Apr.28, 2011, under Night ★, Photography, Smörgåsbord
The newest edition to the Antwerp skyline is this new museum building located between the old docks and Antwerp city center. Museum Aan de Stroom (map), which loosely translates to “museum on the river/flow/current” opens its doors in about 3 weeks to this post (May 17, 2011). The 62m structure is made up of corrugated glass and a computer generated pattern of red sandstone, which twists a quarter turn at each floor, creating a giant spiral staircase, and will tell the story of the city, its harbor and its inhabitants.

The Mission
Welcome!
Lover. Hater. Photographer.
I am a Belgian-New Yorker based in Shanghai, China.
My images convey my attraction to the qualities of urban light at night. This light, combined with nocturnal colors and odd forms, creates a mysterious grandeur within cities that can overwhelm us all.
