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.

In both the film and performance, the artist herself consecutively impersonates three characters: Lenin, Hitler, and Einstein. She cuts up plush toys and makes wigs or moustaches from their stuffing to look more like this or that character. The voiceover reads fragments of Sigmund Freud’s works on the influence of early sexual experience on subsequent life (during the performance, the quotes were projected onto the screen behind the artist); the works include pictures of these historical figures as young children. Each section is interspersed with fragments of videos from the installation entitled Piece of Shit.
