M HKA gaat digitaal

Met M HKA Ensembles zetten we onze eerste échte stappen in het digitale landschap. Ons doel is met behulp van nieuwe media de kunstwerken nog beter te kaderen dan we tot nu toe hebben kunnen doen.

We geven momenteel prioriteit aan smartphones en tablets, m.a.w. de in-museum-ervaring. Maar we zijn evenzeer hard aan het werk aan een veelzijdige desktop-versie. Tot het zover is vind je hier deze tussenversie.

M HKA goes digital

Embracing the possibilities of new media, M HKA is making a particular effort to share its knowledge and give art the framework it deserves.

We are currently focusing on the experience in the museum with this application for smartphones and tablets. In the future this will also lead to a versatile desktop version, which is now still in its construction phase.

Ensemble: DE BEELDBANK [THE IMAGE BANK]

Marshall’s production of images looks to tackle what he refers to as “a lack in the image bank”, looking at images from across the spectrum of culture – from art and society – using them to produce a new body of images addressing what he sees. He has collected images over many years, focusing predominantly on the black subject, and uses this archive of images as a material for developing a dialogue on representation. His personal archive of image clipings can be seen in the installation Baobab Ensemble, Gleaning: An Image Reclamation Project, located in numerous spots throughout exhibition.

Take a look here and send us your images through gleaning@muhka.be, convince Kerry James Marshall and maybe your picture will find oneself in the following Gleaning: An Image Reclamation Project.
