'Moving Stories' is an international co-operation project supported by the European Union in the framework of the Culture Programme 2007-2013. Six partner organisations from Belgium, Italy, Austria, Germany, France and Poland are producing and exhibiting six new works of art. 'Moving Stories' is a project that crosses borders and opens up new horizons, an inquiry into narrative modes in media art. The six European partner organisations function as a laboratory for innovation in exhibition and presentation. Six artists were asked to explore new or innovative strategies involving moving images, each in a highly personal artistic way: along the lines of fiction or documentary, fact or suggestion, linear or interactive approach. Each partner co-produced the work of one artist. The end results are six fully developed works of art, all of them variations on the same theme: innovation of narration. 'Moving Stories' is a travelling exhibition. The six new works are presented as a coherent series by the six partners in their countries throughout 2011. The results of 'Moving Stories' will also be compiled in a publication. 6 art organisations: Co-ordinator: Contour (Mechelen, Belgium) Co-organisers: EMAF, European Media Art Festival, (Osnabrück, Germany) INVIDEO by aiace (Milan, Italy) OK Center for Contemporary Art (Linz, Austria) Vidéoformes (Clermont-Ferrand, France) WRO Art center (Wrocław, Poland) 6 artists: Nicolas Provost (Belgium) Candice Breitz (Germany/South-Africa) MASBEDO (Italy) Rainer Gamsjäger (Austria) Mihai Grecu (France/Romania) Paweł Janicki (Poland) 6 exhibitions: 16.03.2011 – 03.04.2011 Vidéoformes (Clermont-Ferrand, France) Vidéoformes Festival 12.04.2011 – 17.04.2011 OK (Linz, Austria) Crossing Europe Festival 27.04.2011 – 29.05.2011 European Media Art Festival (Osnabrück, Germany) EMAF at Art Hall / Kunsthalle Dominikanerkirche 10.05.2011 – 18.09.2011 WRO Art Center (Wrocław, Poland) 14th WRO International Media Art Biennale June 2011 INVIDEO (Milan, Italy) Exact dates and location will be communicated later. 27.08.2011 – 30.10.2011 Contour (Belgium) Contour 2011, 5th Biennial of Moving Image, parallel exhibition More information can be found on www.moving-stories.eu
