MALDITO FESTIVAL DE VIDEOPOESÍA is an international videopoetry contest that has been held in Albacete (Spain) since 2017.
MALDITO FESTIVAL launch this contest with the purpose to show two disciplines that, either individually or collectively, are much more isolated and forgotten as we would like. According to our experience, these disciplines are considered marginal and minor in the extent of the great European capitals, moreo-ver, in the humble towns within regional borders where its dissemination is nonexistent.
MALDITO seeks to vindicate video poetry as an art that connects people, transmits feelings and stimula-tes different ways to see the world. It is also a tiny contribution of enormous people to empower visual art, stopping it from being marginal and damned*.
(* The Spanish word for damned is MALDITO).
The festival is organized by non-profit Association Cultural Maldito; formed by a small team of professio-nals from the film industry, poetry and culture in general.
The MALDITO team, as lovers of poetry, image and the expressive possibilities of their symbiosis, we in-tend to promote their approach to the public, either with the events of the festival or with the educatio-nal activities that we carry out.
