VIDEOMEDEJA Novi Sad

First International Video Summit in Novi Sad "VIDEOMEDEJA"

Women's creativity has already been activated in fine arts - new media. This
fact inspires the creation of an annual summit of women artists engaged in
video and performance. The first international video summit VIDEOMEDEJA will
be held in Novi Sad on December 20th and 21st 1996, as a part of the women's
initiative network MULTIMEDEJA. The summit is dedicated to presenting works
done by women from Eastern Europe. Eastern Europe is an area interesting
both from the sociological and artistic point of view. The experience of
women from this region determines their poetics as well as the need for the
exchange of artistic experiences. The thematic span of the first VIDEOMEDEJA
is a representation of personal female eroticisms through an artistic
dialogue with their own possibilities and through the dispute with the other
sex's point of view. Therefore, the theme of the video summit is FEMALE
NARCISSUS - LIE AND IDENTITY. In addition to the video presentation of the
contestants, performances and panel discussions will be held. The video
summit awards three equal prizes: the figure of a Sphinx and a plaque.
