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.

The exhibition Animism approaches the concept of animism - coined by 19th century anthropologists in the context of the colonial encounter - from a contemporary, critical perspective. Structured around two opposed and yet complementary aesthetic processes, animation and objectification, the exhibition brings together contemporary and historical works that explore the modern anxiety about the boundaries between the animate and inanimate, persons and things. The exhibition examines how through art the notion of animism can once again play a significant role in western society in the 21st century.
