theViewergallery Multitude 1

I have decided to set up an online exhibition project through theViewergallery. I have placed on artists sites a call for short works.




Multitude 
- a great number; a crowd; an assemblage; the vulgar or common people; the state of being many; a great number of individuals; numerousness.

Moving Image may be described as Video Art, terms overlapping into narrative areas, and into documentation of studio practices and events. Video Art may encompass experimental happenings and ephemeral events captured on video. The Moving Image also suggests Cinema, with its larger scale of filmic and collaborative concerns. Moving Image can comprise everything that moves in a film-type medium, including animation, home movies, historical street scenes, vintage broadcasts, early shorts, use of found footage, and more. Moving Image artists themselves borrow and use any and all of the media mentioned, and define themselves variously.

Multitude is a theViewergallery project, part of theProgressiveImage exploration of Moving Image.
Artists are invited to submit short Moving Image work for exhibition online on theViewergallery site.
Moving Image work up to 2 minutes. 
Future onsite screenings are possible.
Moving image / video  / animation / footage / experimental / extracts.
The theme of the first Multitude online exhibition is multitude.

Small print - theViewergallery will exhibit artists' moving image online, and of course the artist fully retains copyright. theViewergallery asks in advance to show these works at future theViewergallery events in galleries or popup sites, and will inform artists when these events take place, and update artists should any further documentation of their work happens.


no charges, no payments.
exhibition May 2012
deadline 20th April 2012

I am hoping this kind of project will be something of an acorn, to be repeated and to grow and develop.
