Marina Gržinić and Aina Šmid have worked together since 1982. Before establishing the Art Video Institute they had a punk band and were involved in performance art. They have collaborated in more than 40 video art projects, made a short 16mm film and created numerous video and media installations; independently they have also directed several video documentaries and television productions.

Their 1993 Germany World Video Competition exhibit Luna 10 won awards at the San Francisco International Film Festival. Their works have also been presented at the Videonale, Bonn; at the exhibition ‘Europe-Europe, the Century of Avant garde in Central and Eastern Europe’ in Bonn; as part of the ‘Video Viewpoints Program’ at the Museum of Modern Art, New York; at the London Film Festival; and at the ICC Biennial, Tokyo. In 1997 they realised an interactive CD-ROM for ZKM, Karlsruhe, and were presented in the fourth edition of the Artintact CD-ROM magazine, which focuses on interactive media art and is presented by the Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie (ZKM), Karlsruhe.

In 2001 Gržinič and Šmid's large-scale video projection work Silence Silence Silence was presented at the 450 Broadway Gallery in New York, together with a comprehensive screening of their major video works, including the award-winning Labyrinth (1993).
