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.

This map titled Map of China-Arab Relations is another large-scale drawing, which as its title explains, is a mapping of the historical and contemporary relations between China and the so-called Arab world. We see for example mercantile histories enmeshed with ideological and religious, as well as the movements of people, objects and ideas. Over time, Qiu Zhijie has created a subjective, complex world-view that is at once philosophical and transformative.
