Visitors and art enthusiasts following international contemporary art programs will find notable representation from BERG Contemporary at the upcoming Videoex festival in Zürich, Switzerland. Running from May 22 to May 31, 2026, the event stands as Switzerland's largest dedicated gathering for experimental film and video works. The festival explores boundary-pushing cinema that sits on the threshold of visual art, bringing together experimental, conceptually driven, and visually striking projects.
This year's edition features a dedicated focus on Iceland, curated by renowned author Sjón. Within this specialized segment, BERG Contemporary has collaborated with the Vasulka Foundation to curate a distinct selection of works by pioneering artist Steina Vasulka. These screenings highlight historical and ongoing innovation within video art and moving-image practices.
