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.

Gego

1912 - 1994

Born in Hamburg (Germany), died in Caracas (Venezuela).

Gego (Gertrud Goldschmidt, 1912–1994, Germany/Venezuela) studies architecture and engineering before fleeing the Nazis in 1939. By the late 1950s she has become a leading artist in Latin America. Her drawings and small metal sculptures are reminiscent of architectural studies, but they are autonomous artworks uniting the spatial and the organic. She calls them ‘drawings in space’.
