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.

Vaarwel Spakenburg [Goodbye Spakenburg], 1994

Installation

Collection: De Vleeshal Collection, Middelburg (The Netherlands) (Inv. no. VH0176).

Vaarwel Spakenburg from 1994 is a literal farewell to Koelewijn’s birthplace, a small fishing village to the north of Utrecht primarily known for the traditional costumes of its female population. The confrontation with Spakenburg’s strict Reformism is given expression in the artist’s mural drawing, executed in old-fashioned green soap, representing a clothes line full of drying garments – a reverie on the metaphor of cleaning and (both ethical and aesthetic) purification.
