This new exhibition, based on a selection of the earliest tapes of video art in the “New media” collection of the Centre Pompidou, throws light on the history of this medium from the 1960s to today. During the 1960s and 1970s, artists experimented with video through performance, filming themselves or in television studios, studying in depth the diverse possibilities of the analogue layer, then carrying out conceptual trials. 'Vidéo Vintage' traces the journey, not only of the art of video, but also through a synthesis of the first decades of contemporary art from 1963 to 1983. A chance to discover or rediscover the research of the masters of this contemporary art.
