The DIVA News page refers to public presentations, exhibitions, screenings, publications in Slovenia and on the international scene, connected to participations of DIVA Station Video Archive and the video artists who had contributed their video artworks to the archive. We also introduce events organised by DIVA Station (SCCA-Ljubljana) in order to promote its content and usage.
A study exhibition entitled DIVA at Škuc Gallery showcased the DIVA Station archive of SCCA-Ljubljana, presenting it as a 'live archive'. It included an educational programme, practical demonstrations, theoretical contributions, representative video works, curatorial selections and international collaboration, and also presented theoretical, practical and artistic aspects of audio-visual archives of contemporary art.
The exhibition gave an insight into various archiving processes, the development of video equipment and changes in the use of technological tools. Video works and curated video programmes from DIVA Station wrere seen at screenings and in a viewing room, where every visitor could view their own selection. To make their choice easier, we have prepared several sections which presented the DIVA Station in all its thematic and structural diversity, including overviews of individual artists, music videos, Škuc-Forum video production, Videospotting (curated selections), video and television, SCCA exhibition projects, and international video.
