Celebrating the recent publication Encounters in Video Art in Latin America from the Getty Research Institute, this screening with the editors will explore the history and current state of artistic experimentation with video throughout Latin America as a tool for social change. Join us after the program for a wine and cheese reception.
Copies of the book can be purchased online at the Getty Museum Store.
This program is part of Video Art in Latin America, an ongoing research project at the Getty Research Institute that aims to chart the development of video as an artistic medium across multiple regions of Latin America, and to rethink canonical narratives of video art within the context of global practices.
Glenn Phillips is senior curator of modern and contemporary collections and head of exhibitions at the Getty Research Institute.
