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.

Damian Le Bas

1963 - 2017

Born in Sheffield (GB), died in Worthing (GB).

Through his practice as an artist, Damian Le Bas proclaimed the ‘Roma Revolution’ in art. He has fought for Traveller’s rights, Roma representation in art biennales, and applied through his wife’s Delaine’s artwork and performance for the establishment of a Romani Embassy. He also participated in the renowned Paradise Lost exhibition, the first Roma Pavilion organised at the Venice Biennale in 2007, and together with Delaine Le Bas, he initiated the Roma Biennale shortly before his untimely death. In his drawings, paintings, and objects Le Bas worked extensively with maps and the study of cartography.
