Connective Videos: Berlin – Hong Kong 1/6
A collaborative showcase of the Videoart at Midnight Edition (Berlin) and the Videotage Media Art Collection (Hong Kong) video art collections
Connective Videos: Berlin – Hong Kong is a new collaborative platform between Germany and Hong Kong, curated by Olaf Stüber (Videoart at Midnight, Berlin) and Isaac Leung (Videotage, Hong Kong), presented by Goethe-Institut Hongkong. The project encompasses the video art collections of the Videoart at Midnight Edition and the Videotage Media Art Collection. In multiple screenings throughout 2018, Connective Videos aims to learn, compare, and reimagine compelling stories told by various German and Hong Kong artists. It will consider histories across various geographical spaces and offer insights into our existing knowledge of video art production and archival practices.
The screening and the post-screening discussion will be moderated by Isaac Leung.
This first video night will introduce Angela Su (Hong Kong) and Martin Skauen (Norway/ Berlin), with selected works. All their films are dealing with (real or imagined) artist portraits – mostly outsider experimental artists, exploring the fragility of individual artistic expression, questioning the construction of a ‘norm’ and touching upon different concepts of reality.
錄像連線： 柏林 – 香港 1/6
錄映太奇媒體藝術收藏（VMAC）及Videoart at Midnight Edition的錄像藝術藏品展示
「錄像連線」是連繫香港與德國的全新合作平台。活動由香港歌德學院呈獻，由Olaf Stüber(Videoart at Midnight Edition，柏林)及梁學彬（錄映太奇，香港）策劃，展出錄映太奇媒體藝術收藏（VMAC）及Videoart at Midnight Edition的錄像藝術藏品。「錄像連線」在2018年的多場放映裏，會透過香港與德國藝術家所述說的非凡故事，去學習、比較、再想像。跨越地理空間，省思各自歷史，「錄像連線」期望與觀眾一同創出對錄像製作及收藏方式的新見解。
與藝術家對談的映後座談會由策展人梁學彬主持。
六次的錄像放映的第一擊將會介紹香港藝術家徐世琪及挪威/柏林藝術家Martin Skauen的幾份錄像創作。是次選取的作品同樣處理同一個主題──藝術家的肖像或是形象。主體主要是實驗藝術家，探索藝術家表現個人感受時的脆弱，質疑「社會規範」的建構，以及觸碰不同的現實概念。
