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.

Pluie bleue, (S 36), 1957

Installation, 209 x 1,1 cm.

Collection: Private collection.

Yves Klein first exhibited this work in May 1957. Twelve rods are suspended from the ceiling above a field of blue pigment. Like a painting with no fixed form, the work unfolds into space. Klein writes: ‘Pure pigment displayed on the floor becomes a floor painting rather than a hanging tableau.’ The colour becomes ‘As immaterial as possible. The colour itself becomes the attraction.’

Jef Verheyen selects this work for the Integratie 64 exhibition, which focuses on the synthesis between the arts.
