Now in their third year, Moving Image co-founders Edward Winkleman and Murat Orozobekov keep refining the fair’s formula, doing away with many of the suspended screens that lined the walls of the former Tunnel nightclub in years past to allow for more spacious installations by a selection of galleries from New York, other U.S. cities, and far-flung places like Helsinki, Estonia, and Rio de Janeiro.
Moving Image, Contemporary Video Art Fair announced that artists Alessandro Balteo Yazbeck & Media Farzin are the recipients of the inaugural Moving Image Award. The Moving Image Award funds the acquisition by Tate of artwork exhibited at the fair, as selected by Tate’s Curator of Film, Stuart Comer.
Moving Image, the contemporary video art fair that runs alongside London’s Frieze, has announced a new award that will grant $10,000 to the Tate Modern for the acquisition of a new video work for its collection. Stuart Comer, the Tate’s film curator, will select the video or new media work from the array of videos on view at Moving Image. The recipient of the award will be named on October 11, the fair’s opening day.
