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.

In 2012, the Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp celebrated it’s 25the birthday. We celebrated this with collection presentations about the work of Gordon Matta-Clark, Antoni Muntadas, ORLAN, Guillaume Bijl and Paul De Vree.

The selected ensembles of works all pre-dated the opening of the museum in 1987, signifying that the period of the M HKA collection is greater than the museum’s history, and the institutional history also includes the I.C.C. (International Cultural Centre), which resulted in the M HKA and whose archives the latter inherited. The relationship of the five ensembles with I.C.C. are very direct. With Collection XXXI: 5 ensembles, 25 years M HKA, the museum wanted to bring its long-term responsibility as a museum to the fore.

Guillaume Bijl – Projects and Extensions
Paul De Vree – Neon Light
Gordon Matta-Clark – Anarchitecture
Antoni Muntadas – Everything is Politics
ORLAN – MesuRAGEs
