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.

Michel Auder

° 1945

Lives in FR, born in Soissons (FR), lives in New York (US).

Since moving to New York in the 1960s and becoming part of the scene centred on Andy Warhol’s Factory, Michel Auder has been a ‘partial observer’ of metropolitan life in its splendour and squalor. In quantum physics, this term denotes that observation (usually by an apparatus) becomes indistinguishable from what is being perceived, but also that there is no ‘total’ or ‘impartial’ observer. Auder observes life through hundreds of thousands of hours of video recordings.

Solo exhibitions, notably at the Renaissance Society in Chicago in 2002, at Extra City in Antwerp in 2007, at Lunds konsthall, Sweden, in 2010 and at Kunsthalle Basel in 2013. Numerous solo screenings at the Anthology Film Archives in New York. Numerous group exhibitions, including the 5th Berlin Biennial in 2008 and the 2014 Whitney Biennial. Participates in Documenta 14 in 2017.
