While the curatorial process can take years to result in Guggenheim exposure, winners of YouTube Play’s project will be displayed at the Guggenheim in October this year.

The shortlisted entries will be evaluated by an international jury, comprising of expert art critics and celebrities from the worlds of art, design, film and video. The final 20 videos will go on simultaneous display on October 21, 2010, at the Guggenheim museums in New York, Berlin, Bilbao and Venice.
