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.

Collection: Collection M HKA, Antwerp (Inv. no. BK7696_M447).

Imogen Stidworthy originally created the installation I Hate for Documenta 12. The subject of the work is the photographer Edward Woodman, who lost his ability of speech in an accident, and his long struggle to rediscover his fragile voice. Practising words is part and parcel of his photography, which also changed after the accident. As a professional photographer, between 1970 and 2001 he documented installations, exhibitions of contemporary art and architecture models. Since the accident he has used the camera to record social change, and the whole process of change around him. A series of photographs relates to the King's Cross area where the new Eurostar terminus is located.
