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.

Gabriel & Tiago Primo are best known for the project they developed for the exterior wall of A Gentil Carioca in downtown Rio, titled À Parede (“to the wall”). The video documentation of the work shows both brothers scaling this wall, where, for a couple of weeks in 2009, they actually lived (ate, slept) and worked.

Having been asked what had bothered them most in this experimental take on street living, the brothers are said to have answered: “drunks keeping us awake at night trying to tell us the stories of their lives – and the rain"
