IGVFest Milan

Open Call: submission deadline Monday 9 June 2008

The International Guerrilla Video Festival (IGVFest) is a mobile
festival integrating video art with the urban and social environment.
Removing the technologically complex medium of video out of the
institutional situation, it is re-positioned as a approachable medium
in the public domain. The works engage and reflect the unique
historical and interpersonal context of each site in the festival.
Touring to different sites each evening the videos are projected
directly onto the facades of buildings, monuments and temporary
structures.



The International Guerrilla Video Festival Milan 2008 will be held
12-14 July in 3 distinct areas of the city: Isola, Chinatown and Corso
Como. The IGVFest is open to new single channel videos based on the
specific conditions of the areas where the festival will be held.
Artists who are active in the areas and artists elsewhere addressing
similar situations in a different context are invited to apply.
Artists are invited to work directly on site where the festival will
be shown or elsewhere with similar conditions in other cities.
