Video Village 2011 : New Media Expeditions

Video Village, a group exhibition of video and installation work, will be shown at Newark, New Jersey's Index Gallery From April 2 to April 8. An Opening will be held on April 2, from 7-11 PM.
Video Village: New Media Expeditions Curated by Stephanie Szerlip & Noah Collier Index Art Center is pleased to present “Video Village,” a group exhibition and fundraiser for Friends of African Village Libraries (FAVL), exploring experimental forms of ethnographic travelogue and highlighting new outlets for mental conceptions of foreign space and place. Presenting video and new media installation works, these artists skirt the constraints of traditional channels of documentation. The works acknowledge the many mediations between physical travel and personal depiction, manipulating the ability of medium to become message and creating a more abstract and subjective account of the cultural landscapes they have traversed.
