NON-NARRATIVE VIDEO ART / Three Generations of Artists from Gdansk / opening
Vašulka Kitchen Brno cordially invites you to the opening of the exhibition NON-NARRATIVE VIDEO ART / Three Generations of Artists from Gdansk on Tuesday, 10 September 2024 at 6 PM. The opening of the exhibition will be held along with the opening of new exhibitions in Brno House of Arts at the House of the Lords of Kunštát.
The exhibition Non-narrative Video art at Vašulka Kitchen Brno is a panorama of video production from Gdansk. The selected artists represent a group of teachers from the Academy of Fine Arts, but also several who had little to do with their local academic scene. The video art movement in Gdansk originates from curriculum reforms with the aim of creating fields of intermedia study. Successfully implemented, these curricula constitute the basis for the development of video art in Gdansk today evidenced by the successive generations of artists working in this medium. The specificity of non-narrative video art in Gdansk results from the foundations on which education in the field of media art was based. The shaping of the media art scene in Gdansk dates back to the early 1990s, when a new Polish and European reality began to take shape after the political breakthrough of the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end to the Cold War. This sociopolitical context should be taken into account while interpreting the presented non-narrative works despite the works formal aspects.
