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.

Office Baroque: sketches

Drawing

Sketches and first designs of Office Baroque. These designs were banned by the citycouncel and Matta-Clark made an introvert piece instead.

Matta-Clark explains this as following: "Antwerp was the headquarters of the sea shipping company and will be the site of an Antwerp Hilton. After being obliged to make a major changes in the original project, the work was done totally internally using all five floors and the roof. For the first time it was possible to orchestrate a multy leved structure using two circular arches that modulate the space as the shape and size of rooms change up through the building. The result is a series arabesque slices opening whole building to a ever changing promenade of views internal views."
