ABOUT EXHIBITION

The curatorial selection by Tomáš Ruller and Jennifer Helia De Felice presents a pilot showcase drawn from the emerging VMP field database at VKB. This database is the outcome of research conducted through grants in 2024/2025, coordinated in parallel with the exhibition Distorted Image at the House of Arts.

The aim is to offer a representative overview of diverse video works by individual artists as well as creative collectives, based on available materials from the twenty-year existence of the studio (2000–2020), including examples of performative video production from the earlier period of the Video–Multimedia–Performance Studio (1993–2000).

From the approximately 200 works collected, around 100 video works by roughly 55 artists are planned for publication this year, together with a selection of approximately 15 collective projects.

The background context is formed by the reactivated studio website on the VKB platform, which documents the historical development from its first versions in the mid-1990s through to 2020.
