Videoart at Midnight's Summer Special Friday, August 23rd, 2019, 24:00 midnight , big cinema hall (Eintritt frei | admission free)

We are happy to announce our first summer special within 10 years – not a solo presentation but a program – a cooperation with the Berlin program for artists. Berlin program for artists was initiated by Angela Bulloch, Simon Denny and Willem Rooij in 2016.

It facilitates exchange between emerging and experienced Berlin-based artists, through coordinated studio visits and meetings.

Berlin program for artists does not have a fixed location – activity is concentrated in the studios of the artists involved with the program.

Over the course of one year, twelve participants meet with a core group of ten mentors and a wider group of guest mentors. Twice a month participants present their work in concentrated one-on-one visits in their own studios, followed by a group discussion in a mentor’s studio.

The program offers participants a production grant for the creation of new work and initiates an annual exhibition. The VAM's Summer Special program is curated by Bertrand Flanet, one of the 2019 Berlin program for artists fellows:
