PEAU PIERRE

Antonin De Bemels
To make this video, Antonin De Bemels used images taken during a photography session at an old palace. There were two naked bodies and walls and dust. The photographer was speaking all the time, telling the dancers what to do. The filmmaker was hidden in a small alcove, silently watching and filming. An intimate relationship came about between those bodies and his...

RACE WOOL

Messieurs Delmotte
A race between ten colourful balls of wool, creatively conducted by Messieurs Delmotte. A registration of a playful, somewhat absurd performance in the best Messieurs Delmotte-tradition. This work is part of the series The Mental Reason Vol. 1...

WIDEAWAKE

Orla Barry
Language, in written as well as in spoken form, constitutes the essence of Orla Barry’s work. She ties words into phrases, kneads sentences into paragraphs, ending up with a visual as well as verbal unity, an apparently non-structured stream-of-consciousness with an open and poetical structure. The monologue in ’Wideawake’ is performed by Caroline Donnely...

A JOURNEY IN THE INFINITY

Angel Vergara

STAGING SILENCE (1)

Hans Op de Beeck
After experiencing many similar public places, the artist found that they collectively lingered in his memory as abstracted, archetypal spaces. These formed the starting point of ’Staging Silence’, an ambiguous piece featuring an eclectix mix of ridiculous and serious images, the concrete and fantasy...

POWER CUT

Sarah Vanagt
Three boys, Tonton (15), Dodo (14) and Daniel (12), took a series of photos and made short videos during the elections in Goma, Eastern Congo. With the assistance of the Congolese filmmaker brothers Petna and Sekombi Katondolo, the children wandered the streets of Goma with cameras they had been sent from Brussels...

GIRLS AND PHILOSOPHERS

Koen Theys
Video installation for two projectors. A diptych or triptych – depending on how you look at it. ’Girls and Philosophers’ sets out from two screens. Together they make out a diptych, with directly facing panels. In between, however, there is also the area which is marked off by the screens, where the spectators move about...
