European Media Art Festival, Osnabrueck 18-22 April 2012

A program of works by Shelly Silver will be featured, we can't wait!

EMAF is one of the most influential forums of international Media Art. As a meeting point for artists, curators, distributors, galleries and an audience of experts the festival has a great impact on the topics and aesthetics of Media Art. Each year the festival offers its visitors a current overview of experimental films, installations, performances, digital formats and hybrid forms, ranging from personal and political subjects or formal experiments to provocative statements from the pulsating area of “Media Art – Society”. The Festival sees itself as a place of experimentation and a laboratory where extraordinary works, experiments and ventures are created and presented.

Reality and Documentation: An artist talk between Rosa Barba, Aernout Mik and Hito Steyerl

Throughout the last years the role of documentarisms in contemporary art was frequently and widely discussed. At its centre, there was always the question of the capacities of documentarisms to represent reality, the question in how far those documentarisms necessarily deviate from reality. In an artist talk between Rosa Barba, Aernout Mik and Hito Steyerl those
documentarisms will be discussed as a means of artistic praxis. All three artists base their work on documentary forms and researches but at the same time their ways of dealing with those means differ largely.
