Videoformes 2021
Clermont-Ferrand/FR
During the first lockdown in France, VIDEOFORMES launched the call for project “Getting Out of Rout(in)e” and collected more than 90 videos, covering the period from March to July 2020. At the time, the situation was still unprecedented and exceptional.
Let yourself go through glances from all horizons: experimental and sensible videos and quirky or poetic visions regarding this strange period.
The videos are gathered in units about 30 minutes each.

Alexander Hahn • INDIA MATERIAL
digital & kinetic works
Opening: Saturday, April 28, 2018, 8 p.m. - 10 p.m.
April 28 - May 08, 2018 - by appointment
India Material is an artistic take on the spiritual concept of reincarnation, the endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. The fruit of an artist residency in India, the works integrate video with early forms of animation and historic devices, precursors to modern time-based media. The loop in particular acts as a vehicle to virtually sculpt from everyday life essential, alas transient moments while keeping everything in flux – replay ad infinitum.
