This catalogue accompanies Geestgrond, Antony Gormley’s exhibition at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp (23 May–20 September 2026). Combining the Dutch words geest (spirit, mind, breath) and grond (earth, soil, foundation), the title reflects the relationship between matter and mind that runs throughout Gormley’s work. Marking the most comprehensive presentation of the artist’s work in continental Europe, the exhibition unfolds in dialogue with the museum’s historic collection and the city of Antwerp. Featuring installation views, more than 275 colour illustrations, a new essay by Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, a detailed chronology, and the first scholarly study of Gormley’s body-cast techniques, the publication explores a practice that continually asks what it means to be human today.
