Programme 2.
“Aesthetic and technological experiments in video art”.
The definitions of “artistic experiment” or “experimental creativity” can be run
across fairly often in contemporary art and especially video art project
description. It is not only a manifestation of a critic’s or art historian’s
vagueness concerning both aims, problems and artistic quality of a given work,
perceived as a creative process not as a finished product in the traditional
sense. It is also an evidence of a very important methodological transformation
that has irrevocably changed the 20-th century aesthetic paradigm. All the above
applies to video art, which has become a field of experimental study and trial
for various ideas, methods, technologies, not necessarily coming initially from
the contemporary art arsenal.
