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.

The starting point for this set of collages is the devotional cards and other material found saved in missals. They are littered with elements of humanism and classical references such as flowers, leaves and ribbons. The collages explore the amazing similarity between religious and physical iconography in Renaissance painting and contemporary images of the male figure and homosexual pornography. Some collages contain autobiographical elements and others directly reference artists of the modern period.
