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. SCA0068).

Margaret Salmon (b. 1975, New York) draws inspiration from film movements such as Cinema Vérité, Italian neorealism, and the European avant-garde for her oeuvre. I You Me We Us attempts to capture the everyday human experience in minute detail, imbued with a sense of poignancy and poetry. Close-ups of gesticulating, playing, touching and writing hands are interspersed with images of plants and flowers under coloured light. The work focuses on the intimacy of showing affection through touch. It also is a reminder of the most important aspect of love, affection and care, namely human presence and interaction.
 

Margaret Salmon is represented by Office Baroque Gallery.
