The Videoart at Midnight Editions series is the result of a discussion with leading experts in the field of timebased media art regarding the conventional art market practice of limitation vs. the artist’s and public’s interest in visibility and representation in a broader range of collections. Hence, the Videoart at Midnight Editions series both addresses the wish of artists and collections for copyright and quality control of art works, and the need of doing justice to an endlessly reproducible medium and affordable prices.
Together with chosen artists who have been featured in the Videoart at Midnight screenings at Berlin’s Babylon film theatre in recent years, an outstanding work from their oeuvre—film or installation—is exclusively selected or newly produced. The work is published in an edition of 40 copies and is solely available in this series.
The Videoart at Midnight Editions series offers an everincreasing and valuable insight into the current film and video art production in Berlin’s international scene, featuring both renowned artists, hidden treasures as well as new and promising discoveries.
