In the words of writer Arundhati Roy, pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This one is no different. It is a portal, a gateway between one world and the next. In these uncertain times, we all have a cultural, artistic and social function, the best we can do for art and society is to put ourselves at its service and not use it to, through poetic and political imagination, find answers and generate other systems of relationship that are part of the solution and not part of the problem.
The VI nodoCARACAS Video Festival takes these ideas as a basis to propose its VI Video Festival, which this year will take place in Kristiansand (Norway) between November 13 and 22 in the spaces of 51K Arteriet and at the same time will be transmitted live in other cities around the world.
nodoCCS is presented as the collaborative project of two artists whose central axis is the nodoCCS Video Festival from which the programs, exchanges, exhibitions and collaborations proposed by our founders are born in the place where they are located. To date nodoCCS has held its programs and festival in Caracas (Venezuela), Lima (Peru), Bogota (Colombia), Miami (USA), Berlin (Germany), Madrid and Barcelona (Spain), Karazin (Ukraine), Mexico City and Athens (Greece).
Since 2015 and until now, nodoCCS has played several roles, inhabiting both institutional and emerging spaces, collaborating with people and artists to carry out not only the festival but also meetings, screenings, exhibitions and conversations.
