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.

Kortom, de kenmerken van de Gotiek, 2020

Sculpture, 300 x 40 x 60 cm.

Collection: Stad Antwerpen, in langdurige bruikleen in M HKA (Inv. no. SCA0056).

The sculpture Kortom, de kenmerken van de Gotiek (In short, the characteristics of Gothic architecture) consists of a block of stone suspended from an arched wooden batten. The stone hovers above the ground while the batten seems to protrude from the wall. All mounting systems are visible. Bluestone, tow hook, metal wire, metal rail, oak. The work was created in the artist's studios of Ercola, on Wolstraat in Antwerp, where the artist also lives. The work depicts the defiance of gravity, a theme the artist has focused on before, but also relates to the history and architecture of Antwerp.
