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.

Compositie [Composition], 1956

Painting, 69 x 54 cm.

Collection: Private Collection, Antwerp.

In the 1950s Vandenbranden becomes an active member of Art Abstrait, Formes and Art Construit, artist groups that work towards having art take up its rightful place alongside science and technology. He is not a ‘follower’ but a logical researcher who in his experiments succeeds in uniting sound calculation with a subtle feeling for form, as in this example with a rhythmical, façade-like structure. He says that through his work he wishes to bring ‘rest, pleasure and harmony’.
