InFocus® Corp., the industry pioneer in digital projection technology, today announced that it is a sponsor of “Remote Viewing: the Best of Loop,” an exhibition featuring some of the most cutting edge video art coming out of Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia.

Premiering at the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles, Remote Viewing showcases the work of more than 50 internationally recognized video artists, few of which have ever been shown in the US.

Video art is now considered to be the fastest growing practice within the contemporary art field, especially in Latin America and Europe, and the Remote Viewing exhibition features a wide range of styles and methods. InFocus digital projectors and flat panel displays are used

throughout the exhibition to display the works, which range from simple “loop” projections, where a single image hangs on the wall, to videos that vary in length and form.

Much of the work on display Nov. 19 through Feb. 5, 2010 has been presented at the Loop Video Art Festival in Barcelona, one of the largest and most prominent video art exhibitions in the world, which is also sponsoring Remote Viewing. In addition to the video art exhibition, the Remote Viewing program will include public events, and educational tours and lectures to explore interests and issues driving this rapidly growing art form.

“InFocus projection technology is making a huge difference in bringing the largest display of European video art to the US in years,” said Paul Young, author, journalist and curator of Remote Viewing. “With the proximity of the exhibition’s premier location to the home of the movie industry, it’s paramount that we have sophisticated, high resolution digital projectors for vibrant and engaging displays.”


“InFocus is proud to partner with Paul Young to introduce more people to the vibrant and growing video art form,” said David Woolf, VP of Marketing and Engineering at InFocus. “Video art is the perfect complement to other digital content, such as movies, presentations and video games, which people rely on InFocus for larger-than-life displays.”
