- The Crowning Glory
- Abstract
- Exploring critical practices by focusing on a specific architectural object, Maarten Delbeke reflects on the recently finished Museum aan de Stroom (MAS). The building, situated in Antwerp and designed by the Rotterdam-based office Neutelings Riedijk Architects, houses a particular programme (a museum on the history of the city of Antwerp) embedded in a strategy of city marketing. The MAS can be read, as Maarten Delbeke does in his contribution, as a constructed statement of Neutelings Riedijk Architects’ treatise At Work and as a plea for the importance of an architectural métier.
