Between the Seventies and early Nineties of the Twentieth century, #ferrara has been a laboratory for testing of video art of international importance. The Video Art Center, directed by Lola Bonora with the collaboration of Carlo Ansaloni and technical assistance of Giovanni Grandi, has produced the experiments of artists of the stature of Fabrizio Plessi, Christina Kubisch, Angela Ricci Lucchi, Yervant Gianikian or Marina Abramovich who were their first steps with the electronic media. The body of work which has survived is a valuable record of pioneering artistic practices developed in those years through language video, at the intersection of conceptual art, body art, performance art, land art.
