Denver Month of Video (MOV) is a month-long exhibition, event, and curatorial platform held citywide during the month of July, featuring exhibitions with a diverse array of video works, including video art, video games, performance art for video, and much more! Additionally, there will be engaging weekly video screening events held every Saturday. MOV seeks to feature the work of current video-based art practitioners to support the video art community while offering multiple access points for the video curious in the city of Denver.
MOV is committed to supporting artists by paying them.
How it works
MOV has a few components:
Screenings : happening every Saturday in July. Plan on coming to all of these one-night events because each one will have a different theme!
Exhibitions: galleries and art spaces showing video work all July.
Openings/Receptions: one-night events at galleries and art spaces that are participating in MOV.
Founders
We are video artists here in Denver who want to see more video in our city. MOV has been a dream of our for some time now, and we are excited to finally share a whole month of video art with you.

Founder/ArtistAdán De La Garza is an artist, co-conspirator, curator/programmer, and recovering academic. Usually in that order, depending on what job he’s applying for. Adán was a co-conspirator of the media arts exhibition series Nothing To See Here (2013-2016), is the sole member of the anonymous video screening series Collective Misnomer (2016 - present), and smashes a lot of buttons putting on video game exhibitions with Dizzy Spell (2018 - present). Originally from Tucson Arizona, Adán is currently based in Denver, Colorado, where he hates writing in the third person.

Founder/ArtistJenna Maurice is an artist working in video, photography, and performance, who lives and works in Denver, CO. She was homeschooled until she went to college and loved having a broad learning environment with tons of freedom, but might not have engaged in as much popular culture as her peers (she probably hasn’t heard the music of your favorite band from the 90’s). She has college degrees and has shown her work all over the place and doesn’t want to bore you with lists of stuff. She is currently in residence as Redline Contemporary Art Center and travels a lot for her job where she gets to do cool stuff with her friends. She also thinks that writing in the third person is pretty weird.
