The IX edition of BAD VIDEO ART FESTIVAL will take place in November 2026 at Civico 23 Art Space in Salerno, Italy.
The International Bad Video Art Festival (BVAF) is an independent, artist-run initiative. The Festival has been held since 2017. Video artists and B-movie fans Natalia Monakhova and Andrey Slaschilin once decided to explore whether something like bad video art exists. It is well known that B-movies have long since formed a unique cultural niche with their own heroes and fans. In other art sectors, however, the concept of “bad” has not been explored as actively. We are looking for videos that are at the intersection of bad art, bad painting, and bad cinema. We propose to study extreme forms of video art and single out certain works as bad videos or “B-videos”. Join us if you are interested in the issue of quality and boundaries in art.
For more information and to submit, please follow the link to the open call.
