This festival is a celebration of the peculiar, undefinable yet irresistible domain occupied by video art, within the vast realm of art and culture. In the age of Youtube, what defines video art? Can video artists sustain themselves? Is video art relevant outside of the art establishment? 46 years after Nam June Paik placed a magnet on a TV, video art is still defining itself. This is a place where we can ponder upon these questions while relishing on the feast for eye and soul.
