Short films with artistic aspirations and urban space are to merge at the 1st Urban Space Video Walk. This year's motto “No-Go Areas” refers in the broadest sense to places, subjects, themes/categories or situations that are difficult to enter or grasp for a variety of reasons. Not only in the geographical sense, but also in the social, political, societal, emotional or intellectual sense, there are zones that seem inaccessible. Let's break down the barriers!
The event will take place in the evening at dusk at various locations in Düsseldorf. The best work will be awarded the “Urban Space Film Prize” worth 1,000 euros, selected by the jury consisting of Alain Bieber (NRW Forum), Robin Curtis (Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf), Mischa Kuball (Academy of Media Arts Cologne) and the audience.
In the sense of various heterotopias, unusual (non-)places are to be opened up as projection surfaces for the film material in public space. These can be the rough walls of abandoned freight yards, a screen spontaneously set up in the park or an inanimate industrial site within walking distance of the WELTKUNSTZIMMER. The film screenings are free of charge and open to all visitors (including random visitors). The “Urban Space Film Prize” will be awarded at the end of the event in the WELTKUNSTZIMMER, where the winning film will be shown again and a barbecue with music will be provided for the guests.
The exhibition is sponsored by:
Cultural Office of the City of Düsseldorf, VIOSO
