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.

François Morellet (b. 1926) begins as early as 1952 to experiment with abstract work, simple planes in a limited number of colors. Later, he further reduces his visual language to grids. For his grids, he allows lines – painted or in metal – to run parallel, overlap each other or fragment. The grids can be constructed according to deliberate formulae or systemic chance. In 1960, he co-founds the Groupe de Recherche d'Art Visuel, an artist collective wishing to make kinetic art on a ‘scientific’ basis.
