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.

Plastic plaques pour La Chambre en Fourrure (plastiek plaat voor bonte kamer), 1970

Object, 48.3 x 67.3 cm.

Collection: Courtesy Alison Jacques, London and Nicola L. Collection and Archive.

When Nicola L. meets the Belgian artist Marcel Broodthaers in 1969, he takes her to the manufacturer where he had started producing his thermoformed plastic sheets or poèmes industriels a year earlier. There, Nicola L. will have her first designs made in plastic: a plastic plate with the words "Same skin for everybody" and the two floor lamps The Eye Lamp and The Lips

The plastic plate is kind of a design sketch for the installation La Chambre en Fourrure [The Fur Room]. We see the floor and four walls with thirteen 'pénétrables' and an egg shape. Next to "Same skin for everybody" we read, by way of legend: 'ENVIRONNEMENT', 'PEAUX VIDES', 'MATERIAUX' and 'C. APOLLINAIRE', a reference to the gallery in Milan where the work was first shown. Later the installation was also shown at the group exhibition "Je/Nous.Wij/Ik", Museum van Elsene, Brussels, 23 May - 13 July 1975.
