LOOP has since its creation in 2003 become an unmissable international meeting point for video art specialists and attracts a huge number of contemporary art professionals to Barcelona.
LOOP is a dynamic, hybrid and open event, adapted to the changing necessities of the different agents involved in the sector. LOOP is now structured around three core sections the FESTIVAL + FAIR + PANEL, which have developed simultaneously and are complementary. They constitute an area of diffusion, reflection and marketing of video creation, in which the different agents are actively involved, showing, viewing and managing video art works, reflecting, creating contacts and making alliances.
LOOP FESTIVAL is also a city project, connecting local networks with international networks. The city’s main museums, art centers and galleries participate as well as various places such as bars, restaurants and other establishments, bringing art close to the general public.
LOOP exists thanks to the generous involvement, the numerous collaborations and the complicity with artists, curators, galleries, universities, art centers, distributors, collectors and different platforms, showing their work and their discoveries, and transforming Barcelona city center into a huge video art showcase, accessible to all kind of audiences.
