Project Statement (undated)

This unidentified and undated statement most likely derives from a grant proposal for the Open Circuits project. According to this statement, the aim of the exhibition is to change current attitudes toward television. "The necessity of encouraging more meaningful, esthetically provocative use of this enormously influential aspect of contemporary culture is apparent." According to this statement, the history and future potential of television will be examined by bringing together ?the finest video works created from the beginning of television until 1974? and complement them with an international conference, a catalogue and broadcast programs.
