Mu.ZEE - Kunstmuseum aan Zee, Contemporary art museum in Ostend, Belgium
The Mu.ZEE museum occupies a modernist building from 1947, displaying Belgian art pieces from 1830 to present day across multiple exhibition spaces.
The institution emerged in 2008 through the merger of the Provincial Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Fine Arts Ostend, following a rich artistic legacy.
The collection contains 3500 artworks, including 180 pieces by Léon Spilliaert and 350 by Paul Joostens, representing Belgian artistic movements.
The museum maintains two additional locations: the Ensorhuis in Ostend and the Permekemuseum in Jabbeke, offering expanded artistic experiences.
During World War II, an air raid destroyed 400 artworks in the original collection, leading to the construction of the current protected modernist structure.
