Currently Unavailable

group exhibition

14.05.26 - 28.06.26

During Antwerp Art Weekend 2026, Gert Junes Gallery and Coppejans Gallery present 'Currently Unavailable' — a double exhibition for which they selected 6 iconic works that changed art history. The only problem: these works are currently unavailable, housed in the world's most important museums. So Stijn Coppejans and Gert Junes opted for "the next best thing" — an exhibition that could not have existed without them.

With 'Currently Unavailable', you take a dive into both art history and the power of human imagination. With a nod to Belgian absurdism, the two gallery owners present an imaginative programme that makes connections, evokes associations, and above all offers a welcome dose of self-relativisation.

Perhaps this exhibition is also about a simple but persistent question: "when does something actually exist?" When we see it? When we remember it? Or when we try to imagine it? The six works that form the basis of this exhibition are not there — and yet they are everywhere. As is often the case in art history, absence sometimes proves surprisingly present.

Alongside the exhibition, both galleries organise numerous artistic activities on a stage "where no performances take place". The full programme of Non Stage will be confirmed later.

This is not an exhibition of 6 masterpieces — but without them, it could not have been realised.
