AUSTRALIA ; PROMOTIONAL VIDEOS ; VIDEO ART Summary: "From cliche to mini revolution, music videos have a few minutes of music and images to make their mark. Over the last 30 years, promotional films for bands have developed into a very influential cultural form, affecting film, advertising and, more generally, the pace and rhythm of visual culture. Today, the exploratory edges of music video reveal many intersections between visual artists and commercial videodirectors. Video Hits: Art & Music Video brings together works by music video directors and visual artists, and offers an original and challenging framework for the MTV generation to engage with a form of popular culture that has defined a new aesthetic."
