Time Is Love.8 (4)

Français


TIME is Love Screening is a roving international video art program on the theme of love in hard times.



Since 2008 the project has been exploring forms of artistic expression rising from society and the new media's use of technology. It has traveled to major cities in the world attracting a vibrant mix of media professionals, researchers, young people and families.



 



The selected artists deliver us without concession a range of complexities and passions generated by human relationships. Each of the artists leads an interdisciplinary practice bringing a questioning and a criticism on a system of relation to others which appears to us as being dying.



Videos deal with prevented communications, disturbed feelings, globalisation, memory and spirituality. Love as universal feeling extricates itself here from traditional clichés and from a timeless idealism.



 



The project wishes to support and promote the new movements and trends in contemporary culture. It is an opportunity for audiences to engage with video works by gaining greater understanding and enjoyment.



The screening is accompanied by exciting events, including talks and live performances.



TIME is Love Screening brings to the world a refreshing perspective on video art.
