Frühe Videokunst. Praktiken und Theorien um ein neues Medium

Katharina Jesberger
Institute of Studies in Art and Art Education, Art History
2024W, Proseminar (PS), 3.0 ECTS, 2.0 semester hours, course number S05205

Description

In this Proseminar we will focus on the early period of video technology, the 60s and the 70s.
The emergence of the new medium, its technical conditions and its characteristics as an electronic, processual, audiovisual, hybrid medium lead to a phase of experimentation among artists and video practitioners alike. New theoretical ideas are developed around the medium, video utopias, connections to socio-political movements and activism as well as new video-specific aesthetics and experiments with self-observation and the perception of time.
