Où va la vidéo?

00 00 02


Open call for Video competition


fondazione march presents the second edition of Où va la vidéo?, open call that wants to investigate which direction the artistic research of young videomakers is pursuing.

The renewal of the competition wants to continue in observing those works directing towards new forms of experimentation, nowadays when this medium seems to be a consolidated and institutionalized technique.

The Foundation intends to carry out the research path already started through the first edition of the competition; moreover we think that the institution itself must provide and act as debate platform, able to gather the suggestions rising from the works of young artists.


Even Où va la vidéo 00 00 02 is an open call to young artists, with no limits of age and nationality, who intend their work as a research for a new way of relating with the video medium.


The initiative will be presented during two occasions, the first one at Fronte del Porto in Porto Astra Cinema, on Tuesday 20th January 2009, and a second one to be defined.


An (ebook) catalogue  will be realised after the event, with essays and interventions on the

competition. Artists will be asked to send images, technical information and details useful to

the comprehension of the works.
