Videominuto is an international exhibition of videos not longer than one minute in duration (titles included), organized since 1993 by a pool of structures coordinated by Controradio, The Luigi Pecci Center for Contemporary Arts and Gruppo di Ricerca Arti Visive. Starting point for the festival is the desire to enquire into how brevity of format, as the only binding condition imposed upon the author(s), influences video-work in terms of impact, stylistical choices and content. Videominuto PopTV offers 60" to the author(s), open to all types of subject matter, clearly favouring synthesis as expressive form, free and open to themes ranging from social document(ary) to newsitem, from videoart to electronics, from trash to splatter to the purely experimental.
