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.

Armando (b.1929) evolves in the mid-1950s from informal work to black and red monochrome paintings. He co-founds the Nul group in 1960, together with Jan Henderikse, Henk Peeters and Jan Schoonhoven. Around this time he introduces ‘banal’ objects into his work, mounting tap bolts, barbed wire and car tires on a monochrome background. He is also active as poet and publishes (among other places) in the Gard Sivik review, named after the eponymous artist’s café on Antwerp’s Stadswaag.
