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.

A Sense of the End from 1996 is one of two works from Lewis’ oeuvre that was never made into an edition. Another meta-cinematic meditation, it is a film (shown as an installation) made up of six alternative endings of a single imaginary film, complete with dynamic credits and a climactic soundtrack that adds further drama to the work’s “sense of the end”. It is often shown alongside an eponymous series of still photographs taken from these various final scenes.
