PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTS FOR CURATORS + RESEARCHERS

VUCAVU is a uniquely-structured organization in the independent media arts sector. Its purpose is to use the power of collectivity and scale to increase public access and appreciation of independent Canadian film and video art. 

We offer research user account options for two different types of professional researchers in the field: independent curators (or professional presentation buyers) who have a track record of booking works for paid, professional presentation; and academic researchers, who are seeking access to VUCAVU for scholarly reasons.
