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.

Untitled Leather (Chris), 2006

Mixed Media, 490 x 80 cm.

Collection: Courtesy Studio Arocha-Schraenen .

This interesting work consists of dots in three colours that are inkjet-prined onto the skin of correspond to details of blood, foam, and the colour of a shirt in a police photograph of a scene of the American comedian Chris Farley's death from an overdose. It's a 6-metre-long work and applies to the idea of dispersion. There is the microscopic aspect and the idea of something that is both reflective and not, because it is reflexive within itself.
