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.

Human behaviour is the central theme in Enrique Marty’s oeuvre, which spans across paintings, sculptures and video installations. The couple Alberto and Angelica depicts two naked dolls, cast from life size moulds, that have been decorated with tattoos and human hair giving them a mythical appearance. The stories in the tattoos that cover the bodies, refer to the Alberto and Angelica’s individuality, their characters, their background and interest. Both dolls have two razor sharp knives as weapons. The sculptures look like modern day cave dwellers: a direct denunciation of today’s society which is driven by mass consumerism.
