Open Call: 2017 Transmission

Open Call for 2017 edition of International Video Art Festival Transmission
20 – 23 July 2017

 TRANSMISSION VIDEO ART FESTIVAL INVITES COMPETITION ENTRIES FROM AROUND THE WORLD ON THE THEME “WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER – A ROAD MAP THROUGH A POST-TRUTH ART WORLD.”

Does art have anything to contribute to the post-truth, post-democracy world? Is it the time for us to start producing noise, politicizing aesthetic practices or just turn full-time towards political activism? 
In the era of post-truth politics, alternative facts and fake news campaigns undermining our democracies, we would like to invite experimental film makers and video artists to take a stand in the overwhelming ethical ambiguity of our time.

The competition is open to all forms of moving image-based artworks on a single-screen. Entries selected by our international jury of experts will be screened during the Transmission Video Art Festival taking place simultaneously in Karlsruhe (DE), Warsaw (PL) and Kassel (DE) from 20 – 23 July, 2017.

The Transmission open call jury is going to shortlist videos for the final prize. Response from the jury may be expected in the beginning of July 2017.
