BORROWED TIME
“Borrowed time“ will be a special exhibition, curated by Edek Bartz, on display at VIENNAFAIR from 5th to 9th May 2010, daily 12.00 am – 5.00 pm. The idea is to invite private and museum collectors to present their favourite videos. The purpose of the exhibition is not to build a unified framework, the result is rather aimed to be a very personal and subjective view of each collector.
NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY PERSONS UNDER 18. |
