Vidéographe, Artist-run media center in Plateau Mont-Royal, Montreal, Canada
Videographe is a production and exhibition space for video art in Montreal equipped with professional equipment and editing facilities. The center also houses an extensive collection of video artworks that artists and visitors can access.
The center was founded in 1971 to give artists access to video equipment and support the creation of independent works. This mission to make creativity more accessible shaped the space from its beginning.
The center serves as a gathering place where artists work with video, animation, and digital media in experimental ways. You can experience regular exhibitions and events that show how creators develop their own projects and share them with others.
Visitors can explore the spaces and attend events or exhibitions that happen regularly throughout the year. It helps to check the website ahead of time to learn about current programs and opening times.
In the 1970s, the center developed an innovative system that gave visitors access to a video library where they could view artworks. This early model of video access foreshadowed the on-demand platforms we know today.
