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.

The Vitrine of Childish Delights, 2001

Installation, 85 x 75 x 25 cm.

Collection: Collection EVN AG, Austria.

In 2001, the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam presented an exhibition with works of Dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch (1450-1516) such as Ship of Fools, Death and the Miser and Christ Carrying the Cross together with works of contemporary artists like Bill Viola, William Kentridge, Salvador Dalí and Mariko Mori. Jimmie Durham was also among the artists invited to respond to Bosch’s work. He made this small vitrine with a Bosch-inspired landscape populated by animals, monsters and strange plants like in The Garden of Earthly Delights.
