On Friday, May 8, and Saturday, May 9, 2015, vkunst frankfurt will once again present current trends and tendencies of media art trends and tendencies. We would like to invite you to submit your work for the seventh video and media art exhibition vkunst frankfurt - 'ich bleibe' until March, 27, 2015.

Showing projections, interactive installations and animated computer art by about 40 artists, 25 hosting galleries and shops will transform Frankfurt's Fahrgasse street into a "roofless exhibition hall" for two evenings.

In 2015, vkunst frankfurt will present selected works of the exhibition at the premises of the Kunstverein Familie Montez e.V. for a period of one month. The works will be shown in walk-in installations by the artist duo Winter/Hoerbelt.

vkunst frankfurt was founded in 2009. Taking place annually, vkunst frankfurt provides a constant platform for both established artists and young talents from all countries.

For the third time, the media art prize 'vkunst', donated by Jochen Latz and endowed with 2,500 €, will be awarded by an independent, qualified jury of curators and art theoreticians.

Submission deadline is March 27, 2015.

Motive 2015 ‘ich bleibe’

Defiant it may sound, but also hopeful, the motive ‘ich bleibe’ – ‘I stay, I remain’ of vkunst 2015. Two words that remind of the slogan of a rebellious youth culture. A culture, an attitude that is not prepared to be displaced. But ‘ich bleibe’ is also the anxious response to transience – to the transience of ourselves and to the transience of our time. Is it not art, of all things, that stands up to transience?
