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.

Union Rave, 1995

Photography, 164 x 275 cm.

Collection: Courtesy of ZKM, Museum of New Art, Karlsruhe.

Union Rave, 1995, was the first of numerous images Gursky took of rave parties in Germany during the 1990s. Using the artist’s typical high vantage point, the image is composed entirely of a mass of people at a large rave. The Union Rave is a large-scale rave which, like Berlin’s Love Parade, began in the early 1990s and takes place annually in Düsseldorf. Gursky’s image portrays the dynamic of the crowd as a collective body engaged with the energy of the durational music event.
