In the context of the current exhibition, Video Vintage, Beirut Art Center is inviting “Beirut”, an art initiative and exhibition space in Cairo, to propose a screening program.

“The line at which”, just under an hour long, is an intense tangent that touches on the genre of experimental video and film, at two different moments in Egypt, speaking to and from the world of auteur cinema and where it meets the (visual) arts: in subject, form and context. The strong emphasis on the visual and the musical, the stress on (often crude) montage, elucidates a trust in the image beyond the visual as merely descriptive, as representation, but the image as the location of meaning.<\/p>\n
