*Analogue: Pioneering Video from the UK, Canada and Poland (1968-88)*

September 19 – October 4, 2008

Circulated by Vtape (Toronto), co-presented by the Kitchener-Waterloo Art
Gallery and RENDER (University of Waterloo), presented at RENDER


This presentation of 3 exciting programs seeks to illuminate the
little-known early histories of video art in the UK, Canada, and Poland. By
examining twenty years of artists' video from these three countries, it also
aims to broaden our understanding of this versatile medium, while charting
its transition from the politicized margins of artistic practice to the
mainstream.


KW|AG and Render are pleased to collaborate on the Kitchener-Waterloo
presentation of this program.* Analogue: Pioneering Video from the UK,
Canada and Poland (1968-88)* is funded by the Media Arts Section of the
Canada Council for the Arts, the *Touring and Collaborations Program* of the
Ontario Arts Council, and Vtape. It also received the generous support of
Arts Council England, the Polish Cultural Institute (London), Camberwell
College of Arts at the University of London, and the University of Central
Lancashire. It is accompanied by an illustrated catalogue edited by
Catherine Elwes and Chris Meigh-Andrews.


*Includes many seminal works by artists such* as David Hall, Mona Hatoum,
David Critchley, Pratibha Parmar (UK), Vera Frenkel, Lisa Steele, Paul Wong,
Tom Sherman (CAN) and Pawel Kwiek, Jozef Robakowski (Poland).
