WHEN : 5:00 – 6:00pm
WHERE :QUT Creative Industries Precinct
In conjunction with the exhibition Parallel Universes, QUT Creative Industries Precinct will host Then and Now, a panel discussion investigating how historical video art can help us understand and contextualise contemporary practices in moving image.
The panel, chaired by Grant Stevens, will be made up of contemporary artists who use video as a medium. They will discuss the influence of historic practices seen within the exhibition to their own work. The discussion, which will be staged as a follow up to After the Future: The History and Future of Video Art, will unpack how contemporary artists use moving image within a digitally-dominated culture and investigate how these emergent practices respond to or depart from the experiments and themes evident in Parallel Universes.
Panellists include Daniel McKewen, Anita Holtsclaw and Chris Howlett.
