    October 31st - November 3rd
    Deadline: August 1st, 2012
    Regulations - Entry form

    The Bienal de la Imagen en Movimiento (BIM), is a place entirely dedicated to the field of audiovisual experimentation.  An appropriate environment for the exhibition of works, a space to think about the specific aesthetic matters of art on video and film.

    Its main goal is to promote the development and circulation of audiovisual arts. To that end, a singular program of video and film works it’s presented, along a space for discussion enriched by distinguished artists and researchers that propose, both to specialists and the general public, a framework of exchange that improves the experience of the encounter with the work of art.

    The BIM emerges as an initiative of the Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero (UNTREF), this fact defines its identity founded on solid thinking and critical attitude. The deliberation framework that constitute the encounters with international artists, conferences, round-table meetings and workshops, it’s what makes the BIM so much more than just a well-nourished program of video and film works.

    The call is open to single channel works, in both video and film, of author profile, that stand away from the rules established by the entertainment industry, and that are the result of authentic innovative and aesthetic and conceptual searches.

    Send us your irrepressible works in film & video for KLEX 2012!

    On “Deframed”:
    As an artist working with film and video, you use the frame as your medium to express, experiment and communicate. A frame holds your mess together and put it in place and in context – your ideas, emotions, memories, yearnings, desires… It is your canvas, your stage and your asylum, you feel safe and comfortable living in this little universe. And then one day, you notice that the edge of this frame starts to crack…

    Use the word “Deframed” as an inspiration for your new experiment with film and video for the 3rd KLEX 2012!
