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.

Collection: Collection MHKA, Antwerp.

Encounter was the most successful magazine, published by the Congress of Cultural Freedom. It was founded in the United Kingdom in 1953 by English poet Stephen Spender and American journalist Irving Kristol, who is often described as the'godfather of neo-conservatism'.  A monthly journal of literature, arts and politics, Encounter published the works of a wide range of international writers, poets, critics, philosophers and journalists from both sides of the Iron curtain. The column on politics, however, had a distinctive anti-communist and anti-neutralist sentiment, as well as general support of American foreign policy and the U.S geopolitical interests.
