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.

"Candelaria Riots" series

Photography

These photos are a series of images of the violently suppressed street protests in Rio de Janeiro in 1968, made by photojournalist Evandro Teixeira for the newspaper Jornal do Brasil, a platform for opposition during the military dictatorship.

The death of the student Edson Luis by the police had culminated in this protest called the Mars of the 100 thousand.

The story of these photographs and the charged milieu in which they emerged is the subject of the essay bellow (from the A RUA catalogue)>
