MIC MAC: AH, VOUS VOILÀ ROBERTO D'ORAZIO! [SYNDICALISTE]

Claudio Pazienza
The magazine Mic Mac, conceived by RTBF and ARTE, offers a perspective on the present as it is confided to artists. Current events are rendered with a non-journalist, personal approach. Each of the sequences is an encounter in a polling booth with a Belgian personality. The texts are projected onto a prompter, objects, sounds are offered to the guest as a cause for ironic exposure....

I WATCHED THE WHITE DOGS OF THE DAWN

Els Dietvorst
Sound. A polyphony of wind, breaking waves, shrieking gulls, and rattling ships. The sea: a place of memories for those who survive her, a mother who confronts us with the powers of nature. Circulating and all-encompassing. Beneath her horizon there is only darkness and mystery. The separation of air and water creates a different world. A place where other rules and other laws apply...

NIPPLE

Frank Van Herck

UNTITLED (SHADOW)

Wim Catrysse
In Untitled (Shadow) (1998, single-channel-installation) the camera moves constantly in a circular corridor, like in Pursuit, an installation Catrysse made in the same year. The camera departs from standstill and starts to move faster and faster. Behind the endless bend the viewer notices an unidentifiable shadow that seems to be pursued by the camera...

TROIS DANSES HONGROISES DE BRAHMS

Eric Pauwels
Eric Pauwels takes no pleasure in making pretty pictures, but is constantly searching. He is certainly not afraid of making less obvious choices. He likes to use the “plan séquence”, one long take that covers a whole movement. In doing so the camera fully confronts the unknown, explores the space and the body evolving in that space...

BREAKDOWN

Karen Vanderborght
In ’Breakdown’ digital editing techniques such as morphing are used to bend, crush and transfigure two different perspectives of a flat building into each other in a background that does the same in the opposite direction...

TO EACH HIS OWN MASK

Tine Guns
We live in times of crises and failing economic systems. No wonder that questions of change are recurrent. Protest culture is having a revival. Every revolution has its icons. Nowadays, we see the mask show up. Wearing a mask is a carnivalesque strategy. Carnival is a ritual, temporarily dismantling social and political regimes, suspending norms and values...

A BROKEN RULE

Vincent Meessen
‘A Broken Rule’ is based on a performance realized by Meessen with collaborators in Burkina Faso. The video portrays African men taking turns carrying luminous text plates – often the only source of light in the image – through a nocturnal city...
