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.

ANTHEA HAMILTON

Manblind #5, 2011

Object, 285 x 205 x 5 cm.

Collection: Courtesy of the artist.

Each work from Hamilton’s Manblind series appropriates a different image of a rather retro-looking male pin-up and turns it into a vertical blind, suspended in space. Commenting on the dominant perspectives in society, we can look through the blind, with our vision partially obscured by the male filter. Alternately, we can also just enjoy their classic good looks.
