Art Cologne 2016
We had a great Art Cologne 2016. We have produced 12 videos, most of them interviews with artists and gallerists, and also successfully streamed the opening of the fair live via Periscope. Here’s a list with all the videos.
Equally fascinating to me, however, is Vernissage TV. Billed as a portal for shared experience – specifically events – in the arts, vernissage uses simple, yet engaging video clips for what they are: reproductive mechanisms. Aware of the tensions of reproducing, if not replacing, so much of the experience viewers might have in a museum / gallery / institution, Vernissage walks a fascinating line as a point of influence (creator?), and certainly reproducer, of the art experience. One thing is for certain, the video team is doing something right.
(What.It.Is)
I just stumbled upon a copy of a live broadcast that we did at Art Cologne 2008. We streamed live for the first time from Art Basel in June 2007, using just a laptop and a webcam. The live streaming from Art Cologne was a completely different story: We had a studio and a stage equipped with two cameras and computers that allowed us to record and simultaneously stream live and interactive from the fair. There was a program with interviews that we streamed, with art market protagonists such as Marion Ackermann, Michaela Neumeister, Thomas Eller, Lucas Elmenhorst, Rosemarie Schwarzwälder, Helge Achenbach, and Harald Falckenberg. We also streamed an interactive performance conceived by German artist Christian Jankowski, entitled Kunstmarkt TV (Art Market TV). The performance featured two professional shopping channel hosts (John Dalke and Khadra Sufi), who sold artworks via VernissageTV's live streaming platform in the Open Space section of Art Cologne. Later, Christian Jankowski used our footage to create the artwork Kunstmarkt TV that was later exhibited at Art Basel 2008. Here's part 1 of the live performance. The video begins with the preparations of the two hosts for the show.
A veritable treasure trove,...
Mediabistro Unbeige Magazine
In 2005, we started with posting videos with the size of 320x240 pixels, mainly because of non-existent bandwidth. In 2010, we started publishing the videos in HD, that’s 1280x720, and what a difference. Another 5 years later, that’s today, we published the first video in 4K (or UHD), that’s 3840x2160 pixels. Yes, times are changing.
Blip Closure
Our longtime video hosting partner Blip.tv will be shut down today (August 20, 2015). This is sad, because for years it was the best video hosting platform. Now it’s time to say goodbye and thank you, Blip. Within the last months, we have switched to either YouTube, Dailymotion and/or Vimeo, so you should be able to watch all videos on our website without problem. If you encounter any problems, please let us know.
