THE BLUE ROOM
Antonin De BemelsThe biological life continues, but all the rest, spirit, sensibility, is dead. We are left with nothing but a reaction machine, like some kind of insect. Always unsuccessfully repeating some or other behaviour pattern, maybe even a single pattern, again and again, tirelessly. This free quotation from Philip K...
ANESTHÉSIE
Hänzel & GretzelWith Doctor Terror, the anaesthesia always goes wrong. A trashy music video for the French electro-dada group Geins ’t Naït with whom Hänzel & Gretzel collaborated frequently....
HOMMAGE À … IV
Lili DujourieThe five videos of Hommage à … deal with the same theme as repetition-in-difference, as a continual tracing and retracing, of the figure fold and unfold in the visual field. Everything is centred on the concept of self-observation and an exploration of the body. Dujourie develops a recurrent strategy of her work: drawing attention to the space beyond the visual field...

THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 77. AMOEBA
Steve ReinkeThis amoeba describes a libido which is not solely my libido, but a force, an external force. For the amoeba, movement is not movement, but simply a way of being because it does not move though space but simply is. The concept of space is obliterated by the amoeba’s virtual omnipotence. Also, it is sexless and through its sexlessness, immortal. It survives every division...
DO YOU REMEMBER REVOLUTION
Loredana BianconiIn her documentary ‘Do You Remember Revolution’, the Italian director Loredana Bianconi interviewed at length four women who actively participated in the Leftist Armed Struggle in the Italy of the 70ies. All of them were leading figures in the Red Brigades. One of them, Susanna, left the Brigades in 1975 to found Prima Linea...
THE SCRAP IRON AGE
Roy Villevoye - Jan DietvorstFor the Questioning History exhibition, Roy Villevoye and Jan Dietvorst produced a new film that, in a certain sense, is a sequel to Winter Prayers, a film from 2006 about memories of the First World War...
RUNNING AROUND
Ria PacquéeIn this absurdist take on an 'Urban Trail' Ria Pacquée drifts through her hometown Antwerp while intermittently encircling various objects and structures she encounters. A run down kiosk, an artificial hill with a playground slide, a battered metal curb, a hexagonal flowerpot, a concrete ping pong table; all of which would easily disappear in the dense fabric of the urban environment...
