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.

In the summer of 2007, Jimmie Durham did a 3-month residency at the Atelier Calder (the former studio of the American artist Alexander Calder) in Saché, France. One of the artworks he presented there was a table covered with small figurines. Each of these pieces was composed by two elements: one metal piece (collected by Durham during his walks) and one wooden piece, sculpted by the artist using different types of woods. These two elements are not permanently fixed, and can eventually be combined differently by the artist every time they are displayed.
