Since its inception, videoart has been an exceptional medium for investigating the equation “art = life” thanks to its inner technical ability in shooting life in real time. The electronic eye is the most suitable choice, if not the inescapable one, to clearly express the perceptions and experiences of the artist in their very time of happening.
As a result, videoart can provide images that fire emotions directly to the viewer and raise questions about the anthropology of tomorrow, while trying to put the aporias of today on the stage. With this latter respect, the selected works seem to highlight a coming back of a videoperfomance style free of spectacularity and sensationalism: they would rather move within a minimal-conceptual uprightness that might possibly enact all current difficulties in relating with the world that pitilessly flow to our sight.
