The Images Festival is a yearly event devoted to independent and experimental film, video art, new media and media installation that takes place each spring in Toronto.
The Images festival was founded in 1987,[1] originally conceived as an alternative to the Toronto Festival of Festivals (now known as Toronto International Film Festival).[2] Originally titled Northern Visions, the inaugural board included Kim Tomczak, Paulette Phillips, Ross Turnbull, Marc Glassman, Annette Mangaard, Richard Fung, and Janine Marchessault.[3] Since 2005, Images has also presented international tours of Canadian media artists.[2]
