Town Hall Arts is collaborating with Bath Spa University's MA Curatorial Practice students Nina Jesih and Amy Navarrete, who have been invited to create an exhibition of artists’ films. Through an open invitation, they brought together international artists, who deal in video medium. Where to start searching for video works to exhibit, came from curators’ own knowledge of the art world and their past experience of working with some of the selected artists.

Presented art videos do not have an apparent narrative but a contemporary undertone. Each in its own way deals with the question of how people interact with our daily existence and play on the audience’s feelings.

The art works are located within the main gallery and all throughout the Town Hall building. We encourage you to have a walk-around, explore the architecture’s secret areas and open your mind to the exploitation of reality.
 

Town Hall Arts has partnered with Bath Spa University's MA Curatorial Practice students Nina Jesih from Slovenia and Amy Navarrete from Colombia. They were invited to create an exhibition of artists’ films and began their search in their home countries.

Building on previous collaborations and through an open invitation they expanded the selection to include nine international artists who work with the medium of video. The presented works do not have an overt narrative but reveal a contemporary undertone. Each piece in its own way deals with the question of how people interact with their daily existence and plays on the audience’s emotions and concerns.

The art works are located within the main gallery and throughout the Town Hall building. We encourage you to investigate the architecture’s hidden areas and be confronted by exploitations of reality through the artist’s eyes.
