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.

How Much I Love You, 1985

The film How Much I Love You, originally produced for Algerian state television, is a painfully ironic depiction of the French colonialisation of Algeria. Through an ingenious mixture of the genres of educational film, propaganda and documentary, and with a distressingly joyous soundtrack, the film uses the colonial film archives to chronicle the Algerian war of independence from the ‘mother country’. It exposes the political and economic self-interests of the French administration and caricatures its narratives in a darkly sarcastic indictment of colonialisation and its effects.
