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: Stad Antwerpen, in langdurige bruikleen in M HKA (Inv. no. SCA0061).

Ignace Cami (b. 1986, Lier) breathes new life into old things with his practice. He toys with ‘heritage’ as a concept, questioning its place in society while creating the conditions for a contemporary application of this concept. The work Nar was created as part of Cami’s research for his Koek voor Ninove project, which started from a local legend. To this end, Cami created artisanally carved speculoos boards, which local bakers used to bake this local delicacy. These speculoos boards draw on the pre-Christian custom of sacrifices, where the actual offering was replaced by a baked image as time went by.

Ignace Cami is represented by DMW Gallery.
