On Saturday 12 October 2024, participating museums and cultural institutions will open their doors again and we can enjoy art and culture in The Hague again. Stroom presents a special video program with short videos by young artists from The Hague that tie in with the theme of the current exhibition More Heat than Light by Agustina Woodgate.  

Agustina Woodgate's exhibition More Heat than Light explores the relationship between heat and information. In a time of increasing planetary temperatures, heat itself is often the medium by which information is obscured. Ever more heat radiates from our cities and infrastructures; the technologies we use to keep track of this heat are itself susceptible to overheating and ‘freezing.' For this open call, we're looking for video works that take More Heat than Light as a starting point to think through the larger context. For instance, videos that deal with ‘hot' or ‘cold' media, (un)sustainable archives, climate logging, experimental materialities, and alternative modes of communication. 

If this resonates with your practice, we invite you to submit your video work for the Museumnacht program at Stroom.
