September 30th to October 10th

The medium of video continues to be transformed by changes in technology. With Videophagy / Videofagia we want to explore the different forms in which video production and transmission have been influencing art and society. Videophagy is presented in conjunction with artist talks, screenings, and one performance, and it is curated by e-fagia collective. The locations for the show are: Function 13 Gallery and Hot Shot Gallery.

EXHIBITION:

Exercises in Faith by Julieta Maria, and Kino Pravda 3G by Public Studio Collective: Elle Flanders, Eshrat Erfanian, Tamira Sawatzky and Zev Farber. Curated by Arlan Londoño.
Function 13 Gallery, 156 Augusta Avenue
September 30th to October 10th
Opening reception: Thursday 30th from 6 to 9 pm

In Kino Pravda 3G, Public Studio Collective creates a six channel video installation where they explore the video transmission of protests on mobile devices, following the political movements around the world. Kino Pravda 3G is a reflection on the political and epistemological variations of video transmissions. In Exercises in Faith Julieta creates a series of video-recorded, personal performances where she explores de acts of inflicting and being subject to violence. She begins her process with a self-exploration shaped by Colombia’s violence and dispute over the land.

SCREENINGS:

Artists and curators: Jorge Marulanda, Guillermina Buzio, Vicky Moufawad-Paul, Makila.TV, Lina Rodriguez, Brad Deane, Elle Flanders, Eshrat Erfanian, Tamira Sawatzky, Zev Farber and e-fagia Collective

October 8th and 9th
Hot Shot Gallery, 181 Augusta Avenue
Opening reception: October 8th from 6 to 12 p.m.

In this part of Videophagy / Videofagia we want to explore the web as a channel, investigating the different ways in which Internet and other forms of video transmission are related. We are presenting traditional and hybrid contents that are present on the Internet and that participate of, or expand on, the notion of video. These series of screenings are presented and curated by several artists and curators that work with media and new media.

The creation of the web has accelerated the popularity and consumption of video. The Online Channel is a selection of videos carried out through a call for submissions, where we explore the different approaches that contemporary artists take when working with video and the web.

Artists: Gregory Chatonsky, Camilo Cogua Rodriguez - Video Red, Antonio Mendoza, Osvaldo Cibils, Mateo Rudas Vásquez, Heidi Neubauer-Winterburn, Biying Zhang, Rosa Menkman, Stefan Riebel, Shashwati Talukdar, Derek Larson, Nicholas Fraser, Sincita, Jody Zellen, Richard Jochum and Ian Flitman
