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.

Ike, 2016

Object, 50 x 50 cm.

Ike is named after the hurricane that hit the American continent in 2008 and constitutes part of the Plusnin’s Hurricane series. The artist encompasses the dramatic and traumatic episode from a considerable distance thus turning its image almost into a miniature. The artwork of such a format remind of a small screen of a smartphone or of some other screen, the carrier of any information that circulates in the human society. In such a way the format signifies the greater density of information, a kind of compression without loss of quality. As most of Plusnin’s artworks, this one, as art historian Sergey Popov claims, possesses super-density and the super-conductivity of meaning, associations, and ideas.
