LES INSTANTS VIDEO Numériques et poétiques are preparing
The worldwide Estates-Generous of Video Art

2013 - 50th anniversary of video art
In 1963, Nam June Paik made a founding act, with the exhibition of thirteen distorted TV sets (Music/Electronic Television) in the gallery Parnass in Wuppertal, Germany, and Wolf Vostell realised his film Sun in your head.

We will celebrate the event by organising the Estates GenerOUs of Video Art
Where does video art come from ?
What about video art today ?
Where is video art going ?

2013 - Marseille - European Capital of Culture

The 2 schedules shall give the event the magnitude it deserves. As collage technique replaced oil paint, the cathode-ray tube will replace the canvas. (Nam June Paik) Did such a revolution Paik predicted happen to take place ?
