Participatory Discussion
Telephone Telephone: Present-Time #1

In partnership with "City Scenes: Video Art from the Collections of n.b.k. and EAI"

Wed, 12/06/2023
6:00 PM - 20:00 Goethe-Institut New York

Please join us for Telephone Telephone #17, on Wednesday, December 6, 6:00pm at the Goethe-Institut for the first of a three part series entitled Present-Time.

This is the first of three discussions about video art, television and their descendant media and how artists have used these to extend exhibition space and build new distribution networks for their ideas. Presented as part of the Library's ongoing exhibition, City Scenes: Video Art from the Collections of the n.b.k. and EAI.

Our reading for this meeting is Dan Graham’s introduction to Video-Architecture-Television: Writings on Video and Video Works 1970 - 1978 (Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, 1979, Edited by Benjamin H.D. Buchloh, contributions by Michael Asher and Dara Birnbaum.)

We will be discussing the architecture of televised communications and how Graham and others integrated their works into existing circuits of presentation for art and performance.
