The
Project "Euroscreen21"
PAN-Forum of Art, Germany
The
name "Euroscreen21" denotes a project performed by artists
from
European countries who are working in the area of Video/New Media
Art.
The
accelerating technical and political developments render a new
meaning to time and space. Communication with people even in remote
countries works fast and easily by means of rapidly improving techniques
and data networks.
A
united Europe offers new chances for an innovative community.
"Euroscreen21"
arises in the year 2002 on this background. Art has
always promoted the discourse and understanding among different
cultures.
The
concept basing explicity on a European cooperation, presents new
approaches to art as well as communication; a circulating of pictures
beyond all restrictions by language problems, an experiment performed
by
artists of various countries, reflecting issues of present political,
philosophical and aesthetic concern.
The
presentations will take place in the world wide web,museums and
galleries as well as in easily accessible public areas.
Works will be shown in various European locations at the same time
-
depending on opportunities. Simultaneous demonstration will increase
the
communicative impact of the presented issues.
The
participants live in the geografic Europe in England, France, Hungaria,
Switzerland, Germany, Poland, Croatia, Turkey, Belgium, The Netherlands,
Spain,
Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Austria, Luxembourg, Greece, Denmark,
Finland,
Czech Republic, Russia, ...
The development and results of the project will be shown on this
website.
First
exhibition location of the project will be the
PAN-Forum of Art, in Emmerich,
Germany, opening in 2003.
