Video screening

Saturday, 18 June 2016
from 10pm – Facade +MSUM, Maistrova 3, Ljubljana

We are joining the traditional Museum Summer Night with a two-hour screening program entitled Feedback Loop 2 at a Museum Square in Ljubljana. The video program Feedback Loop 2 curated by Ida Hiršenfelder presents the part of video archive which is extremely important for understanding video art and its social impact, but remains almost entirely unnoticed and non-representational. Feedback Loop (in its first version) was premiered on media facade of Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb in 2014. The second edition of the program is showcasing a new selection.
