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.

Collection: Collection M HKA, Antwerp (Inv. no. M004557).

When the 2022 invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation started, Alevtina Kakhidze felt that fleeing might be just as dangerous as staying home. She decided to stay in Muzychi, the village on the outskirts of Kyiv in which she lives and where she organises an artist residency program in her house and where her garden functions as her laboratory and her source of inspiration.  She designed two curtains for the  ‘The Artist as a Witness’ in the Parlementarium. One of the curtains is entitled ‘presence’ and urges us to follow the example of plants who are pacifists as much as possible on our planet, the other curtain is entitled ‘future’, where ‘we rebuild our bodies to be like plants’.
