Moving Image Archive
IAS annual archive project 2008
Moving Image Archive was created to generate ardent public interest and active participation in artist films and videos that IAS Image Archive has collected since 2005.

Moving Image Archive presents international visual resources that received spotlights in various film festivals such as Videonale, Montevideo, Seoul International Labor Film and Video Festival, Seoul Human Rights Film Festival and others along with IAS distributing single-channel video works. Moreover, one can view films and artworks that received international acclaim with their genuine creativity and artistic features. The works of auteurism directors, Jean-Luc Godard, Derek Jarman and Peter Greenaway are in the collection list; and avant-garde, experimental cinema works of artists such as Maya Deren and Dietmar Brehm are also available. The documentary series, Point of view: Anthology of the Moving Image, art: 21, Art City, the eye, uncover the work process through interviews of artists.

With the archive collection, the audience can enjoy a wide variety of moving image works that were not included in the exhibition screening. This will endow a valuable opportunity to grasp the mainstream of international media art. While probing these works, you might possibly encounter answers that the exhibition itself has protruded.
As a future-oriented archive enabling multi-disciplinary approaches the IAS Archive facilitates experimental projects and provocative collaborative work between artists and researchers and seeks to become an alternative collection reforming itself in a continuous evolution.
