Unclassifiable, video, 2008
From September 4 to October 5, 2008
*The exhibiiton will be closed on Thursday September 18 for our annual fundraising event.This curatorial project showcases video work which steps outside the frames that define video art, cinema, documentary, and pop-culture. The featured artists in this exhibition have crossed over the boundaries of these groups, leaving us to question the limits facing creative practice today.
