Media expression

The series of artistic programs Art Noc on Polish Television has been
broadcast for five years already; it offers a unique place for presenting
artistic avant-garde, experimental work, the latest tendencies in Polish
and world art. In Art Noc artistic events are presented, as well as authors
who seek new solutions in art; it initiates the critics and media
theorists' reflection over the expression of today's art.

Wroclaw - the city where the new art seems to have found its place, in the
days May 24th - 26th 1998 will become the scene of the presentation of a
number of artistic proposals within the frame of 'Art Noc Live'; each of
these will show in a different way the expression of various media, music,
body, voice, electronic instruments, motion picture, screen surface, or
stage space. The presentation as a whole is a kind of an open meeting - a
symposium for artists and viewers.

The symposium has been prepared by TVP Program 2, TV Wroclaw, The
Cinematography Committee and Open Studio.
