Annual General Meeting (AGM) and Knstlerhaus Bchsenhausen present the 5th edition of AGM: AGM07: Doc.Art on November 16, 2007; 7:00 pm - Weiherburggasse 13/12, 6020 Innsbruck, Austria. The symposium analyses the interaction between journalism and art. It presents and discusses artistic projects produced through journalistic and documentary means, and conversely journalistic investigations which use artistic platforms to reach the public.
AGM07: Doc.Art focuses particularly on the following topics: Aesthetic Journalism, the use of realism in documentary video art, and the artistic / journalistic exposing of territorial control.
AGM was initiated by Alfredo Cramerotti and Iben Bentzen in 2003 in order to pursue new modes of knowledge production in existing fields of knowledge. It is an annual and itinerant event focused on exploring the relation between the annual theme and the hosting institution.
