About danubeVIDEOARTfestival
The second season of danubeVIDEOARTfestival presents contemporary international video art between 2010 and 2013. The Festival was developed to bring contemporary art in a rural region of Austria.
Videoart gives the opportunity to open a window into the world. The variety of representational possibilities allows creative use of technology and thematic issues. The latest trends in video art will be made accessible to the public, a snapshot of the everchanging positions of its appearance, its images and its contents. The wide range of the selection and the tremendous response of Artists underline the international relevance of this format. From 618 contributions Elisabeth Kramer, Larisa Colesnicov and Roland Wegerer selected the final participants of this festival. 64 videos represent a cross selection of all works submitted. The aim of this selection is to give a wide spectrum of contemporary video art.
The danubeVIDEOARTfestival will present videos from such diverse categories such as short and experimental film, narrative, performance, animation, documentation and “mixed forms”: a challenging and varied, but also funny and entertaining program with the aim to present video art as a contemporary art form to the audience.
