K21 Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen »40yearsvideoart.de – The 80s« March 25, 2006 – May 21, 2006 
Conradt, Gerd / Jahn, Hartmut; “Über Holger Meins – ein Versuch – unsere Sicht heute, 1982” The Düsseldorf exhibition concentrates on various artistic approaches to video practice in the 1980s in West Germany. Significant in this decade is the accomplished development from the TV-monitor presentation to the installation. On the threshold to digital image production, video establishes itself as an artistic image-making process and is simultaneously used for documental recording purposes. Against the backdrop of the zeitgeist, private television, national census, Neue Deutsche Welle, and Punk culture, the genuinely sociopolitical, democratic, and utopian dimension of video experiences an intensification during the last years of the Federal Republic of Germany. Shown here are selected examples of Video Art of the 1980s in their originally developed presentation formats. The exhibition includes works by a.o. Abramovic´ /Ulay, Conradt/Jahn, Dellbrügge & de Moll, Dieter Froese, Ingo Günther, Jean-François Guiton, Dieter Kiessling, Marcel Odenbach.
