@c.a.v.e Presents:
(video art) by Nihaal Faizal @nihaal_faizal
Curated by Ben Broome @drabl
Nihaal Faizal’s (video art), 2016 - ongoing, is a public YouTube playlist collating informal and self-shot documentation of seminal video art installation globally. Now with over 200 videos, the playlist serves as both an archive of Faizal’s internet wanderings and an educative resource for those unable to access these works in their exhibition contexts.
Conceived by the artist while studying in Bangalore, (video art) is shown here in proximity to many of the institutions and galleries featured in the playlist. Yet, installed in the storefront window of a residential Greenpoint neighbourhood, the work still occupies a geographical and aesthetic margin compared to these institutional contexts. The breakdown of image quality, symptomatic of the re-recording and bootlegging of these seminal video works, is further compounded when split across two screens and viewed from the street through laminated glass.
Please join us for the public opening of (video art) on Saturday March 7 from 7:00-9:00 PM. The show will remain open during the same time, every Thursday through Saturday until April 11.
