SEEKING VIDEO SUBMISSIONS


Seeking video submissions for an ongoing monthly video salon held in the Lounge at Northeast Kingdom.

The subject matter is entirely open. The only requirement is that videos remain under 10 minutes and are submitted individually in DVD format, i.e. please create a separate DVD for each video entry.

This is a monthly residency at The Kingdom so therefore I've set no specific deadlines at the moment. However, I encourage you to submit your work as early as possible so it may be incorporated into the appropriate show.

Please mail all submissions to:

Anti-Oxidant BK
476 Jefferson St., #313
Brooklyn, NY 11237
Attn: Christina Medina

Questions? Need to connect? Want to be on the mailing list?

Email: AntiOxidantBK@gmail.com
Phone: 646.436.6231

I look forward to receiving your submissions.

:D
Cheers!
Christina

THANK YOU!


Just want to give a huge THANKS to everyone that attended the first ever Anti-Oxidant video salon at Northeast Kingdom. It was a fantastic turnout and I had a blast. Also a HUGE HUGE THANK YOU THANK YOU to all of the artists that submitted their work. I've received nothing but positive feedback regarding the show and am eagerly anticipating the next salon in September.

Remember this is a monthly residency. Shows are always free and everyone is welcome to attend. One suggestion is to arrive early, have a fantastic dinner, maybe get a drink before heading downstairs, then relax and enjoy the show. I'm always up feedback; so if you have ideas, comments, want to be added to the mailing list, or would like to get involved-shoot me an email.

Artists Selected!!!!



Anti-Oxidant Video Salon will exhibit for one night only, a fresh mix of video works from local artists Blair Dowd, Drew and the Medicinal Pen, Ianthe Jackson, Christina Medina, Helena Petersen, Lauren Silberman, Alexa Hoyer, Kevin Vale, and Unisex Youth Helmet.

The pace of our city may appear fast and chaotic to some; however, if we take a moment to absorb it, analyze it, and find our place in it, something magical occurs. We begin to see the music that surrounds our world and the movement that is toe tapping it's way into our life's breath. It is here that we begin to find our place in this vast metropolis we call home. Each video artist adds their own definition of this rhythm to a broad collective while their individual styles appear in a harmonious contrast. The artists' individual expressions range from surrealistic dreamworlds to full on music video, while each piece shares the conceptual undertones of movement through music is its most broad sense.

Anti-Oxidant is a video salon hosted and curated by local video artist, Christina Medina; held monthly in the Lounge at Northeast Kingdom located in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Anti-Oxidant was created with artistic freedom of expression in mind without the pressure of creating something 'sellable'. Upon arriving in New York a year ago, Christina felt a need to question the the boundaries of visual art, music, and performance. Anti-Oxidant was born out of a rebellion to the commercial art world that prevails in much of the city. This is not a negative jab at the commercial art world, for as artists we would love to get paid to make art and give up the day/night jobs; with the mainstream so must exist a thriving experimental colorful world free to express itself.
