Video In America
Everson Museum of Art: January 1 - December 31, 2019
The Everson’s commitment to video art began in 1971 with the launch of one of the first exhibition programs in the country to feature the work of artists working with video technology. Today, the Everson’s historic video art archive contains over 400 video tapes, 130 of which were conserved and digitized in the last few years. Video in America features recently digitized works paired with contemporary videos in order to draw connections between video art being produced today and the influential, early work in the Everson’s archive. The videos in this yearlong exhibition will change each month, focusing on a different region of the country and providing a snapshot of the ways in which artists are using video today.
