Latin American Video Art in the VIVO Media Arts Archive

Latin American Video Art in the VIVO  Archive: A Response in dialogue with Gabriela Aceves Sepulveda’s research on Women Art and the Periphery
An Archive/Counter Archive event.
Part of the VIVO case study Gendered Violence: Responses & Remediations.
Held at VIVO Media Arts Centre, May 24, 2023.

Taking VIVO’s documentation of Women Art and the Periphery (WAP) as a point of departure, this screening and library viewing program features a selection of Latin American video, sound and archival documentation that address gendered violence through a multigenerational and intersectional lens.  Co-editor of the publication  Encounters in Video Art in Latin America (Getty Publications, 2023) Elena Shtromberg joins Karen Knights, Sarah Shamash, and Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda, for a discussion about collections, archives and Latin American video distribution networks across the Americas.
