Narrative audiovisual works intrinsically request the viewer for time to reflect and view the work from beginning to end instead of just walking by as can often happen with installation video art. Because of this, VIVA Show Tour has become an itinerant meeting point where international video artists find space and attention to show their full intellectual discourse.

A collaborative network of international curators, foundations, galleries, private collections and institutions allows the bringing together of the best single channel international works. On this occasion VIVA collaborates with the Curator Pim Trooster at the oppening of the exhibition NED 2 at the Gouda Museum with a 49 minutes show . The NED 2 exhibition will be held at the Museum Gouda from the 5th of September 2009 till the 29th of November 2009.
