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.

The artist takes a trip. Away from the rigidity of his usual patterns and muted tones of his colour palette. He captures a moment of joy when he boards the Staten Island ferry in New York. It has been raining and a somewhat whimsical rainbow forms on the wet asphalt that cuts through the word 'liberty' written in bronze letters on the road. A rare phenomenon, which means this image immediately adopted a symbolic value for Van den Broek. Another work from the same series (Liberty #3) is the production image for Choreolab, an experimental programme whereby the dancers present their own creations in complete freedom and in an uninhibited manner.
