Definition och Betydelse av "video art"

What is "video art"?

Video art is an art form that began in the 1960s and involves creating art using video technology. Unlike traditional forms of art like painting or sculpture, video art uses moving images and sound to explore artistic ideas. Artists such as Nam June Paik and Bill Viola have been key figures in this art form. Video art can include various formats, from single video clips shown on screens to complex setups with multiple video displays. The goal is often to capture viewers' attention by using the unique qualities of video, such as movement and time, to create new forms of expression and storytelling.
