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.

Panchromy refers to the intensity or temperature

of colour. Monet was not the only one to have a

keen eye for this, so too did James Ensor. In the

later phase of his career, this Ostend master

seeks to capture the fleeting essence of the light

in his beloved home city on canvas. He paints the

iridescence of its salty air and the mother of pearl

on the inside of seashells. Ensor and Verheyen

both start from white and soft bright colours,

from the purity of light.
