Sincerely, Warmly presents a program of video work about reaching out to someone who could never respond to you. Taking the form of epistolary texts, postcards from somewhere, mis-remembered narratives, and eavesdropping tactics, the works in Sincerely, Warmly explore the intimacies and distances of trying to communicate. ⊕

The After Party
In response to the exhibition OMG, it’s a Party! Vtape presents: The After Party, a round table discussion on Saturday, October 13, 12-2pm.
What does it mean to belong to a party? How does belonging exist within a party? With a declining trend of voter turnout are we in a time of after party? Where are new parties emerging that can replace the current parties?

OMG, it’s a Party! Screening and Slow Dance Party
“The works selected reflect on ideas associated with the queering of western pop culture, identity searching, gender dynamics, and Chinese politics. If the physical OMG exhibition showcases our investigation of “party”, the Screening is perhaps trying to tell you why we do this exploring, posing it as an echo of the exhibition” ⊕
Since opening our doors in 1983, Vtape has presented a substantial program of screenings, exhibitions, artists’ talks, and publications. Events from 2012 to the present are represented here in this archive. This online resource reflects a combination of event-based programming, exhibitions, and education dedicated to the development of video art and new and diverse audiences. The Past Events Archive is organized by year, starting with the most recent events, and moving backwards through history.
