Programme duration 40 min

This programme covers work by artists of a generation that not only made videos but promoted, packaged and distributed them as well. Addressing a new social and political environment generated by globalisation, these pieces critically re-evaluate concepts such as feminism, gender, consumerism and political engagement.

Work by Pipilotti Rist, Sylvie Fleury, Ugo Rondinone, Thomas Hirschhorn, Christoph Draeger, Gianni Motti, Daniel Pflumm and Christian Marclay are included in the screening.
