Wavefield Field Trips are group visits to artists, studios, and experimental polymedia spaces exploring all aspects of video, sound, and technology. We hope that every trip extends Wavefield into an open field of waves by expanding attendees connections to other artists, their work, and more generally to possibility, inspiration, and community. Join us for a tour of the Shigeko Kubota Video Art Foundation and Loft by their staff.

Shigeko Kubota (1937-2015) is renowned as a pioneering Video Artist who additionally and dedicated herself to become recognized as an especially significant early progenitor of this new medium by taking multifaceted roles as artist, curator, critic and essayist.
Shigeko Kubota Video Art Foundation (SKVAF) preserves her artworks and oeuvre, and pursues and propagates her cultural legacy developing and supporting programs to develop wider awareness, appreciation and understanding of the history and future of video art.
To help meet this goal our Foundation develops archival resources and enables in-depth research for students, scholars and cultural practitioners to explore visual material and historical contextual records, through on site and online access to our archival resources and references.
Their programs also support and encourage artists cultivating new experimentation in new media technology and access to new audiences.
