What is TheVideoArtFoundation.

An open group of people dedicated to different facets of contemporary art who work together to promote art projects. The common interest of the group is to propose a creative approach to any aspect of these activities and their development.
These might include exhibitions, public video screenings, editions, audiovisual production or other activities that, precisely because of their creative nature, resist any kind of classification.

TVAF was created in response to the current need to establish new structures to extend and finance the presence of art in society and to the desire of its members to further the implication of art in every kind of contemporary activity.

TVAF places special emphasis on treating artists and public well, mediating between them and the sponsors and institutions that fund these activities.

TVAF has an international makeup, works internationally and is aimed at an international public.

Manuel Saiz
Artist. Lives in London.
His long and well-recognised career as an artist began in 1986. He has taken part in numerous national and international exhibitions, and having centred on video in his most recent work, has participated in many video art festivals. From an artistic perspective, his deep knowledge of the area of video creation and his technical and conceptual capacity for the analysis of the medium have led him to create www.unxposed.com, a source of technical resources and information exchange for the video art community. He has also curated exhibitions such as "Psychical Therapy and Leisure", London Based Art, Moriarty Gallery, Madrid, 2000.
