Description

Video Data Bank (VDB), a special collection of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, presents Roundabout, a new screening series in which the Chicago video art distributor invites fellow moving image archives and distributors to collaborate on a conversational program of short experimental works, prompted to respond to a selection of works from VDB’s collection with a selection from their own. The first participant, Electronic Arts Intermix, is a New York City–based nonprofit arts organization that is a leading international resource for video and media art, and whose core program is the distribution and preservation of a major collection of more than 4,000 new and historical video works by artists.
