Video

--- CONTENT ---
Video or audiovisual art is a form of expression based on the use of video technology as a visual and audible medium. The video art emerged in the late 1960s when new consumer video technology, such as video recorders, became available outside corporate transmissions. The video art can take many forms: recordings that are broadcast; facilities seen in galleries or museums; works transmitted online, distributed as video or DVD tapes; and performances that can incorporate one or more televisions, video monitors and projections, which show live or recorded images and sounds.

The video art experienced the different trends of the time, such as fluxus (with which it is especially related), conceptual art, performance or minimalism. (It should not be confused with the production of television or experimental cinema.)

Background
The creation of the dark camera, a technique used to capture light in a photosensitive material. "The development of the cameras can be read as a technological event that disconnected the experience of the vision of a subject with organs of perception." The use of cameras helps to have a new form of perception of reality. With the discovery of the cameras, different series are produced in the production of images, in which we can find different artistic styles.

Another important precedent is the creation of the video camera, which is a technological means that helps to capture reality. A difference between a video camera and a photo camera is that with the first one can capture what happens at that moment without having to represent it.

History
According to the latest data discovered, the Spanish Salvador Dalí and José Val del Omar were possibly along with Nam June Paik and Wolf Vosell pioneers of video art. Val del Omar's work could be registered within the experimental cinema; however, the fact that he also created special supports or techniques for his exhibition, such as the "Apanoramic overflow of the image" makes them unique parts and outside any possible commercial circuit or exhibition room for use. Despite this, his work is currently taking on great importance and is being very widespread, but in order to appreciate it as he had arranged, it can only be done following his instructions, closer to the artistic installation. The Triptic Elemental of Spain is his most recognized work, and the first of those tapes dates from 1953-55, although already in Vibration in Granada we have an antecedent, almost a sketch of what we see here. That's why we can say he's the pioneer of video art.

Dalí has been claimed as another antecedent of the Videoart after the discovery of the projection of the work Caos and creation, in which the Spanish artist parody the art of Piet Mondrian and El Bosco, done together with the artist Philippe Halsman, the work was done to
