The moving image has now become a standard form of expression for artists. But what does this mean if we are to understand it as a cultural heritage, something to be preserved for the future? From this perspective, the great challenge in preserving the artists' moving image is its place between two distinct but increasingly overlapping ecosystems: film, with its festivals, archives and distribution platforms, and visual art, with its exhibitions and museums. This roundtable concluded the two-day New Media Museums Colloquium and brings together professionals from across the spectrum of institutions to discuss the state of the art and consider existing and potential new forms of collaboration. Guests include representatives from national film archives in Czechia and Poland, n.b.k. Video-Forum Berlin, collecting institutions and museums in Central Europe, and artists.
