Visual Container
(italia)
VisualContainer is a non-profit association, aiming to fill the gaps at long last of a qualified video-art and new-media distributor in the current Italian Art outline.
Our project originates thanks to the effort and commitment of the Art critic Giorgio Fedeli and the Video Artist Alessandra Arno', both operating in the Milan area, with the aim to allow young emerging Italian Artists achieve visibility both in Italy and Abroad and to supply further promotion and diffusion of works by Italian or foreigner operators already active in the current Contemporary Art outline.
At VisualContainer we address therefore to the Artists who use the video as mean of expression and invite to submit their works which once assessed and if selected will be placed in an archive, supplied with critical essays and partly visible online.
Upon direct request or thanks to our professional and accurate intervention, we at VisualContainer will use any endeavour to allow your video the most appropriate distribution both as single works to either public or private audiences be it for cultural, didactic, exhibition purposes and, of course, be it the case of personal ownership. Of course it is also possible to include them within compilations regarding a pre-arranged topic. VisualContainer likewise intend to put to good use the potential within the establishment of a cultural information and exchange network cultivating contacts with similar international foundations and institutions or Videoart and new media art archive centres acting as a Distributor.
Furthermore arousing foreigner Art operators' interest in the Italian Videoart production is part of our commitments.

Cristobal Catalan
Tour(scape)
http://vimeo.com/23576583Año: 2010
Duración: 7 min 18 Seconds
Synopsis:
The work self-reflexively explores issues of voyeurism, objectification and surveillance as discursive practice. The project explores disruptions and fixtures in the video gaze and its relationship to the human body. In a world of shrinking geographies and increasing mobile image technology, processes of spectatorship appear to be “directed” in some sense. The nature of this “directedness” raises many questions about the explicitness of ‘looking’ and its penetration of public and private space. The project develops experimental sequences that evoke the decaying gaze and body, providing opportunities to explore visual processes between lens and subject, self and ‘Other’.

FADE OUT
http://vimeo.com/19744845
Año de producción: 2010
Duración: 15'36''
Producción: María Beltane
Directed/shot/edited : María Beltane
PLOT: De un fade out ( inconsciencia) a negro a un fade in ( consciencia ) en una carretera.
En primera persona. Un viaje da lugar a otro, sin moverme soy espectadora.

Viajo por asfalto,tierra,agua,metal,hierba. Camino con la punta de los dedos por  entre las copas de los árboles y dejo qué mis ojos dibujen pájaros en el cielo.

Los sueños son viajes del inconsciente a lugares del preconsciente menos consciente. O lo qué es casi lo mismo, los sueños son la respuesta del inconsciente a las preguntas qué nos formulamos cuando conscientes y que no podemos respondernos por las barreras de la misma consciencia. 
 
Dentro del sueño de una mujer nos perdemos en el agua y en los azules, características comunes asociadas a la psique femenina. Si el sueño en la forma más esencial y espiritual es un viaje, y los tiempos de reacción de la psique los marcan los medios de transporte, ¿ Un viaje en tren dejará mas poso que uno en avión ?
