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.

François Morellet

° 1926

Born in Cholet (France), lives in Cholet (France).

François Morellet (1926, France, lives in Paris) has chosen to follow a formal ‘objective grammar’ for his paintings, installations, and architectural interventions, basing them on principles and systems established in advance of the execution rather than on a moment of subjective creativity. Morellet joined the French Groupe de recherche d’art visuel (‘Visual Art Research Group’) in 1960. His systemic approach, based on optical effect, has yielded visually attractive and challenging artworks. Viewers are intended to generate their own interpretations, although Morellet was well aware of the discrepancy between intention and interpretation. Many of his works are designed for public spaces.
