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.

Rehearsal/Retrospective , 2009

Performance

Collection: Courtesy the artist.

The performance takes the shape of a rehearsal session. It’s engaging and makes the audience part of the same staging. Four different performances (The Sphinx, The Messenger, The Artist Without Works and Prayers) are presented simultaneously, under the guidance of a director, one of the performers, who, like an orchestra conductor, gives orders, instructs, ask to repeat if not satisfied, and validates the actions of the other protagonists. Rehearsal/ Retrospective permeates the space with a disorienting feeling, blurring the boundary between reality and fiction. Instinct immediately leads us to wonder if what we are observing is part of the programme. A short circuit that feeds the desire to be overwhelmed by the compulsive whirlwind of actions.

First performed at Théâtre National de Chaillot, commissioned by CNAP (2009)
