A project by Anton Vidokle and Julieta Aranda, e-flux video rental (EVR) comprises a free video rental store, a public screening room, and an archive. Its collection, selected in collaboration with a large group of international curators, consists of more than 400 art films and video works, and is available to the public for home viewing free of charge. For each of its new locations, EVR will expand its inventory to include new selections by local curators invited jointly with the hosting institutions. A program of talks and special screenings will continue at all the branches.
At our New York location on February 23, 8pm, a Cairo-based curator – Mai Abu ElDahab, will screen a selection of works by the Atlas Group/Walid Raad and Sebastian Diaz Morales. Abu ElDahab is currently a resident at ISCP in New York and is a co-curator of Manifesta 6.
