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.

Bervoets has the reputation of an Einzelgänger, a role which is perfect for him and allows him total artistic freedom. His oeuvre can be characterised as radical, uncompromising and contains narrative, autobiographical and expressionist (in some instances even baroque) stylistic elements. All of the above was quite the opposite of the reigning stylistic works of the contemporary fine arts in the eighties and nineties.

In the last couple of years, the general painting style in the contemporary arts has shifted to a more open and expressionistic style (for example the works of Jonathan Meese and Kati Heck). This style of painting resonates more with Bervoets’ oeuvre.
