125 video shortlist announced today for Youtube Play
Sunday, September 19, 2010
The Guggenheim has spoken: the shortlist for
YouTube Play. A Biennial of Creative Video
will now go in front of the jury, and is available to view at
youtube.com/play
.
It’s been a busy summer. More than 23,000 videos, from 91 countries, were submitted for YouTube Play, and the Guggenheim has picked 125 to make up the shortlist.
In there, you’ll find submissions from students, video artists, photographers, filmmakers, composers, video game programmers, an
American Women’s Chess Champion
, a
comedy improv group
, a
Swedish rock band
, a
South African hip-hop group
, an
Australian electronic music producer
– and a lot more.
It’s now down to the YouTube Play jury to pick up to 20 videos for a special presentation at the Guggenheim Museum on October 21. Here is one of the jurors, Japanese artist Takashi Murakami, to explain why he thinks YouTube is important in the art world today:
The videos selected by the jury will be on view to the public from October 22 through 24 in the Tower 2 Gallery of the Guggenheim Museum in New York, at kiosks at the Guggenheim Museums in Bilbao, Berlin and Venice, and available to a worldwide audience on the
YouTube Play
channel.
