De la Muestra de Vídeo / Festival de Creación Audiovisual de Navarra al Festival Punto de Vista: un recorrido por la historia de dos festivales pioneros [From the Muestra de Vídeo / Festival de Creación Audiovisual de Navarra to the Punto de Vista Festival]

Abstract

This article reconstructs the history of the Festival de Creación Audiovisual de Navarra (which began its journey as Muestra de Vídeo) and Punto de Vista, both created by the Departamento de Cultura del Gobierno de Navarra. The first festival, held between 1992 and 2002, became a national benchmark in the field of video art and new audiovisual practices. The second, an evolution of the former, focused on documentary cinema in its most heterodox and experimental form, achieving international recognition. Both festivals trace a joint history of more than three decades, leaving an undeniable mark on the local cultural sphere and on the global landscape of non-fiction cinema.
