VisualcontainerTV want to share to all audiences the "official opening" of Les Instants Video 2011 on the web.
So, VisualcontainerTv presents on ExhibitContainer - format dedicated to the most interesting international Videoart projects and festivals- "Self reality & auto-fiction program", from the 24 edition of Les Instas Video International Videoart Festival from Marseille, France.
About Les Instant Vidéo Festival
The festival Les Instants Vidéo (international video art and multimedia festival) wants to be a space/time where destinies come across each other, where new cartographies of creation can be woven, where new lines can be opened in direction to new comets...
Les Instants Vidéo Numériques et poétiques is a non-profit art organisation (association law 1901). It inherited from the Festival founded in 1988 in Manosque (Department of Alpes de Haute Provence). Since 2004, it is based in Marseille and cultivates nomadism. We are always looking for the encounters of publics and artists that we like to name the electronic poets.

MIDEN FESTIVAL: MONOBALANCE
International Videoart Festival from Kalamata GREECE
Curators: Gioula Papadopoulou, Giorgos Dimitrakopoulos
6th October - 2nd November 2011
Only on VisualcontainerTV
www.visualcontainer
VisualcontainerTv presents on ExhibitContainer - format dedicated to the most interesting international Videoart projects and festivals- MONOBALANCE, From FESTIVAL MIDEN International Videoart Festival from Kalamata, Greece.
Curated by: Gioula Papadopoulou, Giorgos Dimitrakopoulos.
The screening program MONOBALANCE was initially presented in Festival Miden 2011, last July in Kalamata, GR, and visualcontainerTV is pleased to host this selection for all lovers of videoart who follow us.
Join us!
About FESTIVAL MIDEN, KALAMATA, Greece
Festival Miden*, the first Greek video art festival presented in open public spaces, is an annual video art & new media cultural event held in Kalamata, GR.
The festival is founded, organized and curated by a team of contemporary Greek artists, who are all linked with Kalamata since childhood. It is an independent organization, supported by Kalamata’s Historic Centre Organization, the Messinia Chamber of Commerce and the Municipality of Kalamata.
The main purpose of the festival is the free presentation, promotion and development of Greek and international video art and new media art, in times dominated and defined by “image” and “technology”, creating a new, alternative, peripheral meeting point for emerging and established video and media artists from Greece and all over the world.
Since 2005, Festival Miden has been gradually established as one of the most successful and interesting video art festivals in Greece and abroad and has been a significant point of cultural exchange for Greek, European and international video art.
Festival Miden has presented screening programs, exhibitions and collaborations all over Greece, while collaborating with various art groups, art schools, art spaces, organizations and other festivals in Greece and internationally.
(*Miden means “zero” in Greek)
“A butter cow for a Zen poem. Acrobatic balance exercises in a “cylindric cube”. A water spill runs through a city while life rolls smoothly. The calm charm of a boy moulding clay objects in a stroboscopic whirlwind of images. An unusual way to serve breakfast. Thrown bags that come to life drawing us to unexplored abandoned areas of the city -and the mind. Sisyphean repetitions of “it” and the “self”.
Unexpected explorations, explanations and interpretations of the world, acrobatic studies, balances of the mind and semiotic games on perception, vision, communication, post-modern culture and linguistics.
Endless references, metaphors and displacements in a selection regarding the sensitive equilibrium of human existence and the fluctuations of life. Like stepping on one leg...”
By: Gioula Papadopoulou, Giorgos Dimitrakopoulos.

LENS:Italian videoart observation point on VisualcontainerTV
A special selection from VISUALCONTAINER Italian Videoart Distributor
5 April - 2 May 2011
Only on VisualContainerTVhttp://www.visualcontainer .tv/
Curatorial statement:
We’re assisting with ever-growing doubts to the dramatic social and geographical events that are currently taking place in the European Union members, as having understood that what happens in any part of the Global Village will eventually affect all the others.
Also the world of contemporary art is being pushed by the urgencies of an ever-growing mixing up of several technologies and media languages, which overlap and join with the network of our daily life as ordinary people. And so, within such a confusion and restirring puzzle where ecological pressures melt with identity and global life urgencies that absolutely need responding, Italian videoart can become an effective observation point over what’s topical with both Italy and the wider image of Europe and beyond.
As multi-faceted as the social-cultural kaleidoscope of our contemporary age, the videos on show, listing among the latest additions to VisualContainer’s archive, become a magnifying lens of what’s happening around us: sometimes by creatively magnifiying small and ordinary pieces of daily life, other times by introducing us to more complex art visions which are full of lyrism, the authors are here travelling from the microcosme of our inner and proximal space to the greater stage of the society we’re developing with other inhabitans, in and out the national borders, in the present time and already out in the near future.

About Windows from Gaza for Contemporary Art
The space around us is limited, the ideas in us are unlimited. We came together to think about how we could
break out from here and reach the outside; and how we could open small windows and breathe fresh air. In
this restricted/cramped space – Gaza - we express ourselves in a cultural-bound artistic language, when we
talk to others. A language, that is part of us. “Gaza” is rich in details, that we try to illustrate using new,
descriptive colours.
A group of young artists, bound to a specific, geographic area, in which ideas converge. Deeply believing in
collective co-operation, they try to develop together the creative aspects in the art movement. They are
looking at the most recent contemporary art, that serves them to fully express their artistic abilities and put
them into form. The ideas and reflections of the group come to a synthesis, that is brought to public
attention by regularly holding meetings, exhibitions and workshops, in which both local and international
artists participate. Each of them has taken part in numerous international events in support of their culture,
their art concept, and their effort to interplay with others.

LES INSTANTS VIDEO 2010 - 23th Edition, Marseille - France on VisualcontainerTV
LES INSTANTS VIDEO 2010
Numériques et Poétiques International Videoart Festival
23th Edition, Marseille - France
27 October - 30 November 2010
Only on VisualcontainerTV
http://www.visualcontainer
VisualcontainerTV is glad to host a selection from 23th Edition of Les Instants Vidéo, Numériques et Poétiques, International videoart festival, Marseille - France.
We're honoured to welcome one of the most famous French videoart festivals, which has nowadays reached its 23th edition!
The selection is presented on ExhibitContainer, a format that only shows International Videoart festivals and curatorial projects from all over the world.
The on-line exhibition will be nearly simultaneous with the Festival's opening in Marseille, to promote the best interaction between Italy and France on behalf of all videoart followers.
About 23th edition of Les Instants Video - Director of the Festival: Marc Mercier
The Instants Vidéo is the world’s record holder for its length (4 months), as well as for its width (3 continents, 8 countries, 15 cities and 30 places). This double athletic record has no more importance that of eggthrowing or that of the longest travelling in the history of cinema (300m in Godard’s Weekend). It is there only to show our disinthralled passion for Dionysiac excessiveness.
Marseilles : our anchorage ground as well as our runway.
From 3rd September to 19th December, the Nomadic Instants Vidéo,
with the help of partner-organisations, organise the festival stopovers.
The reason why the Instants Vidéo have chosen to be at the same time here and elsewhere -Marseilles being our anchorage ground as well as our runway- is the urge to feel in our flesh that we're not isolated, that a cheerful and insubordinate constellation is being sketched in order to uphold the rallying cry of one of the smaller Resistance networks during World War II : To emancipate and federate our humanities. Here is an unreasonable network : Marseilles, Damascus, La Ciotat, Prague, Nice, Amsterdam, Alexandria, Aix-en- Provence, Oran, Martigues, Port-de-Bouc, [.BOX] Videoart Project Space Milan curated by Visualcontainer, Tlemcen, Kiev, Cairo, Florence.

A special selection from VISUALCONTAINER
Italian Videoart Distributor
15 september - 30 october 2009
VisualContainerTv is happy to present a videoscreening with most challenging Italian video artworks, provided by the archive of the sole Italian distributor. After welcoming some of the most interesting international organisations dealing with videoart, it's high time to show a selection of made-in-Italy videos filing under the distinctive feature of emergency: because of both its urge for expressing and comprehending contemporaneity in Italy and beyond and of its ever-growing need for emerging and circulating, also thanks to the promotion by VisualContainer.
The ExhibitContainer section, usually dealing with video compilations from international videoart festivals and curatorial projects, is now presenting 22 artists who have gained national and international reputation.
Artists:
Rebecca Agnes, Francesco Arena, Riccardo Arena, Alessandra Arno', Elena Arzuffi, Barbara Brugola, Silvia Camporesi, Pascal Caparros, Iginio De Luca, Maria Korporal, Luca Christian Mander, Pietro Mele, Patrizia Monzani, Sabrina Muzi, Tomoko Nagao, Christian Niccoli, Matteo Pasin, Cristina Pavesi, Mauro Romito, Sabrina Sabato, Natalia Saurin, Enzo Umbaca, Dubravka Vidovic
Besides, the monographic section "SpecialOne" is welcoming the video project BREATH/RESPIRI by Francesco Arena.
For this work, Arena has produced a series of 23 videos from 2004 to 2008, each of them being interpreted by a different male or female character, in order to give way to two-colour obsessions of faces breathing behind a glass (which often let themselves go to "forced" yet really touching intimate moods).
Each video has been performed by 23 international musicians coming from several environments, who have specifically composed brand new sound tracks.
* all videos are distributed by Visualcontainer - www.visualcontainer.org

Bringing together and collaborating with artists, curators, art critics and other art professionals from all around the world, VIDEOHOLICA becomes a meeting place, where artinvolved people, institutions and initiatives communicate and exchange ideas and experience. VIDEOHOLICA keeps alive the discourse about the place of contemporary art in the nowadays Bulgarian society and makes popular on the Bulgarian art stage one of the most important and greatest trends in the contemporary art forms in the world. The festival addresses the professional public as well as that auditorium, which has had no contact with contemporary art until now, and provokes both audiences through organized art activities to look for new meaning and identity amidst creative environment unknown to them so far. VIDEOHOLICA intends to present art works by well-known artists as well as renders opportunity to young artists, who are working in the field of contemporary art and are pursuing innovative practices in a professional manner, to manifest their works distinguished for their original creative language.
Videoholica is supported by the August in Art Foundation, Varna Municipality and other art institutions in Varna. The debut of VIDEOHOLICA video art festival was held in the period 8 – 15 August 2008 in Varna within the framework of the sixth issue of the International Biennial for Visual Arts AUGUST IN ART www.augustinart.com.

Electronic and Sensitive
Special selection from Play Festival Buenos Aires Argentina
Special selection from Play Festival Buenos Aires Argentina
18 - 31 March 2009 on VisualContainerTV
The selection “Electronic and Sensitive” constitutes an opportunity of access to the best possibilities resulting from the interaction of art and technology. The vitality of the creation in video art appears and shows in works that leave aside the mere experimentation to look for the depth of meanings. All the artists include in the selection show a maturity in the field that makes them get a greater richness in their speech. Almost all the works denote a semantic quality that lets them move through the most subtle aspects of reality. In the genesis of most of them, we can see a conception of the video production where technology gets to a new sensitivity.

“The (re)production of space”
“The (re)production of space” on VisualcontainerTV

Project Preview of LOOP Festival Barcelona
“Henri Lefebvre asserted that any society produces a space of its own. Space is a social product, or rather a complex social environment – based upon values and the production of meanings – which involves space relationships and perception.
To film the urban space means to compare the movement of metropolitan structures and people with static architecture, silence with noise, emptiness with fullness, private space with public sharing; but it also means to superimpose images from the emotional memory, sensations and interpretations which do convert the real into mind landscapes.
The selected artists show several interpretations on the social space, that is to say of the urban space: a fragment of the real is set against abstract resolving, levels overlapping, graphic processing and staging.
The video-works thus become procedures of action within the spatial triad enunciated by Lefebvre (i.e. the lived, perceived and imagined space): a way of understanding, dreaming and transforming.” Patrizia Monzani
Patrizia Monzani has followed a cinematographic education and worked as a film director and editor. An author of several videopoems in collaboration with contemporary poets, she is currently involved in the videoart world, also as a curator following cooperations with LOOP festival and Videoartworld.com.
