The Experimental Video Art Exhibition 2004-2011 Thai-European Friendship installment of this video art series intended to show current styles and modes of video practices in Thailand will be featured from eight participating universities such as Bunditpatanasilata Institute in Bangkok, Decorative Arts Faculty at Silpakorn University, Painting, Sculpture and Graphic Arts Faculty at Silpakorn University, Fine Art Faculty at ChiangMai University, Fine Art Faculty at Burapa University and Fine Art Department, Department of Fine Art, Architecture Faculty, at King Mungkut’s Institute of Technology in Ladkabang, Bangkok. Banditpatanasilata Institute, Bangkok University, Faculty of Fine Arts, Bangkok.
The purpose of the annual project is to showcase a diverse international group of students from various universities and artists working in video art each year to stir up new concerns, methods of practice, art theory and discourses of meaning about global influences of new media on social behavior, perception and artistic expression. We invite many artists from Europe who currently live and work in Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Slovenia, England and other countries. Each artist’s style and individual work process contributes to the diversity of the exhibition project providing insights into their cultures, roots and customs, personal interests and issues that tackle concerns about place, time and simulation.
Through the participation of artists from various backgrounds we intend to create a network that enhances understanding of different cultures through artistic practices and opens up an international platform for discussions. Additionally, we focus on building academic partnerships within Thailand as well as establishing academic exchange programs with foreign universities and institutes that already include the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna (Austria), the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne (Germany), and others.
Our specific goal is to improved fine art education and academic regulations in Thailand. Science technology is nowadays an important area of study in the arts and projects should be made available for students at their academic institutes. The Experimental Video Art 8 Exhibition is a project that extends knowledge of new media for students and the general public through organized video screenings and receptions at various universities in Bangkok.
