This Summer marked the collaboration between the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, Hewlett-Packard and YouTube to use YouTube Play to find the 20 best artistic videos to be exhibited at the Guggenheim.
After viewing the 23,000 video clips submitted, 125 have been selected as finalists. This shortlist will be reviewed by a panel that includes film director Darren Aronofsky, visual artist Takashi Murakami, recording artist Laurie Anderson, video artist Douglas Gordon and museum curator Nancy Spector. The 20 winners will go on display beginning October 21.
Here is the official montage video introducing the finalists. You can also view the complete set at the YouTube Play video channel.
