​​​​​​​Founded in 2019 TICK TACK is a new destination for contemporary art in Antwerp. ​​​​​​​TICK TACK realizes, presents and promotes international exhibitions and video art screenings, complemented with publications and an extensive digital archive. Housed in the brutalist complex ‘De Zonnewijzer’, a 1955 key work by architect Léon Stynen, TICK TACK occupies a historic duplex at a vivid city intersection, facing the tram stop and landscape park 'De Harmonie'. The 5-meter-high window functions as an interface between artists and audience, and between private and public space. The TICK TACK program is dual. By day, TICK TACK presents exhibitions, at sunset, the window transforms into a projection screen under the name CINEMA TICK TACK, a new and exclusive platform that brings video and digital art to the public space. Reaching numerous of passersby and commuters on a daily basis, CINEMA TICK TACK serves as a channel, stimulating a connection in its urban setting. ​​​​​As a result, both day and night, TICK TACK constantly challenges the physical and mental boundaries between inside and out.
