EXPERIMENTA, India’s only film festival celebrating artists’ film and video continues to play an integral role in showcasing uncompromising, fresh and compelling moving image art from across the world.

EXPERIMENTA will host a retrospective of the cinema of Adolfas Mekas, the father of the western avant garde independent film movement, presented by his wife and collaborator Pola Chapelle Mekas. The Artist in focus programmes will showcase the 16mm films of avant garde feminist filmmaker Joyce Wieland from Canada, and the fantastical works of Toronto-based German-Indian artist Oliver Husain. The competition programme presents a fresh selection of international films and videos. Indian Sonic Research Organisation (ISRO) from Bangalore, alongwith artists ANYMA & Marc Duseiller from Switzerland, will conduct an open workshop on DIY Musical Instruments & Hacking Electronics, and will perform live with electronic music toys, creating visuals with the Videobass, a bass guitar that plays images instead of sounds.
