An international video creation festival.

The Festival is an open exhibition where material ranging from video art to experimental video will be presented, covering everything related to art made in video.

It constitutes an interrelation and promotion space that enables us to come closer to visual experimentation; CLOSE UP VALLARTA offers the chance to present new video work of emerging or established artists and its focus is to present art made in video in spaces other than museums and galleries, and to reach more spectators.

The curatorial proposal is based on liberating video-art from the rigid and pre-established discourse that has dominated the genre. CLOSE UP project emulates the constant activity of the eye and our perception, and arises from the modern trend to visualize our existence.

Monday and Tuesday, April 25 and 26 at 8 pm in Teatro Vallarta. Tickets are 60 pesos. TICKETS
