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.

Jan Dries (b. 1925) is one of the few who goes beyond ceramics as an applied art and uses the medium to make expressive sculptures. Makes a break at the end of the 1950s with the baroque form-vocabulary and, starting from designs in plaster, makes rigorous and utterly simple sculptures chiselled and polished in white marble. These works often consist of various components that may be arranged in a variety of combinations.
