 30 years ago, GIV staff initiated a screening project that became one of the longest running events celebrating independent media artworks created by women artists.* The explosion of outdoor screenings is now a staple of Montreal summers. Vidéos de femmes dans le parc (VFP) was one of the forerunners. VFP is a celebration of the communal aspect of gathering to watch media artworks. Initially a project to bring video art to spectators in a non-traditional venue, VFP has evolved into a much-anticipated summer highlight. We wish to thank the artists, distributors and spectators for joining us on this adventure. 
*Women is utilized here in its most inclusive definition.

FORÊT D’EXPÉRIMENTATION is part of Labocine’s „Spirit of the Forest“

Labocine’s August 2021 Issue Spirit of the Forest is out! đŸŒČ🌳🌮

„The concept of the forests as a source of life cannot be isolated from the integrity of nature that corresponds to the integrity of the physical body and cultural personality of local and indigenous peoples. As a source of life, the forests need to be understood in accordance with the natural elements that support life, such as the earth, water, trees and wildlife, air, sun, sounds or language. Since ancient times, undisturbed patches of vegetation have been dedicated to folk spirits In this issue, we pay tribute to these very same spirits of the forests that have protected our bioreserves and have awoken at times abruptly to the the impending cries and human-induced pertubances.“ (Curated by Alexis Gambis)
