VIDEOSCAPE: Film screening at the Kunsthall Stavanger

My short film Parallel Realms is screening tonight in Stavanger, Norway alongside four other films, including Maya Deren's Meshes of the Afternoon. The Kunsthall Stavanger curated this video screening event to coincide with Nicolas Party's exhibition, Landscape.




From the website: 

Videoscape is a film and video screening inspired by Nicolas Party's exhibition Landscape. Landscape combines site-specific installations, paintings and drawings inspired by Stavanger artist Lars Hertervig (1830 - 1902) to create a new landscape within Kunsthall Stavanger's five galleries. The exhibition comprises both artworks and stagings of events, where the audience is invited to understand the kunsthall as a place for social interaction and participation.
Videoscape presents five video works that offer an exploration of different types of landscapes; the film and video landscape, the natural landscape, the cultural landscape and the urban landscape. By utilizing film and video, the artists examine what happens at the intersection of time and space, nature and culture, the conscious and unconscious, and between "them" and "us".

Program:
Steina and Woody Vasulka, In The Land Of The Elevator Girls, 1989
Ryn Wilson, Parallel Realms, 2012-2013
Mikhail Basov, Free Movements, 2012
Maya Deren, Meshes of the Afternoon, 1943
Chaj Hertog and Nir Nadler, Harvest, 2013

Welcome!
Videoscape is part of a series of events in Nicolas Party's exhibition Landscape, organized by different people involved at Kunsthall Stavanger. Videoscape is organized by Astrid Helen Windingstad, art historian and volunteer at the kunsthall.
