Pressrelease

Welcome to the 7th edition of FOKUS video art festival. Again this year, we present a month dedicated to video art running from February 9 to March 9 2017. With FOKUS, Nikolaj Kunsthal aims to make video art visible as one of the most significant and vibrant expressions of contemporary art.

More than 150 video works by artists from 22 different countries were submitted for FOKUS 2017. This year’s festival jury has selected the 10 best video productions, presented here in this programme, which constitute this 2017 edition of FOKUS.

During the festival, the jury will award three prizes to the final winners of FOKUS 2017 among the 10 nominated artists.

This year, FOKUS moves beyond the exhibition format so you can experience the festival wherever you are and whenever you feel like it. At home, on your couch, on the train, on a café. All films are available via the FOKUS app or online during the entire festival period. You will also find FOKUS at selected places in the city.
