La Napoule Art Foundation Residency for Moving Image Artist Announced

 

 

Moving Image is excited to announce that a La Napoule Art Foundation (LNAF) residency has been dedicated to one participating artist from the 2013 New York fair.
In response to the effects of Hurricane Sandy, LNAF is awarding eight artists affected by the hurricane a month-long residency at the Chateau de La Napoule just outside Cannes, France, and one of these positions will be filled by an artist represented at Moving Image. This program will bring together artists with diverse experiences of a shared event for reflection, exchange, and creation. The Chateau is located along the Côte d'Azur, which harbors a high density of internationally renowned institutions - museums, theaters, festivals, foundations and research centers - this community of lively creators offers an inspirational and interactive setting for Residents.

Moving Image founders, Edward Winkleman and Murat Orozobekov, and the La Napoule Art Foundation have been very involved in recovery discussions for the artists communities affected. The storm hit at the epicenter of the Contemporary Art scene and touched the lives of thousands of artists living on the East coast. For many, Sandy created a financial burden from damaged studios, homes, materials, or artwork. For others, however, the effects of the storm were less tangible. This residency offers artists renewed inspiration after disruption to the creative process, or simply a place to process what they witnessed during the storm.

The Shortest Video Art Ever Sold

 

A project by Marina Galperina and Kyle Chayka - organized by Postmasters

 

The Shortest Video Art Ever Sold is a site-specific physical curatorial project, offering an exclusive "screening" of new art by top net artists in the newest social media format, Vine - a video all of six seconds long. SVAES is presented in a purposely analog/DIY format, a Fair Shopping Network "television program"  that will grant the fair goers opportunity to immediately purchase the Vine Edition of 1 and, for an extra fee, have the artist tweet the new artistic acquisition at the patron, so they can have their collecting acknowledged publicly. ! SVAES subverts the insular art market, the Vine brand, the "like economy" of the social media and video art as property/commodity.

 

Marina Galperina is the Art Editor of ANIMALNewYork, and a Brooklyn-based freelance journalist, specializing in Russian internet phenomena, conceptual vandalism and net art. 

Kyle Chayka is senior editor at renowned art blog Hyperallergic.com and a freelance culture and technology writer based in Brooklyn. He is a participant of and spectator on various events and exhibitions in New York and elsewhere.
