21 JULI

Axel Claes
Old Super8 images of the Belgian National Holiday celebrations in Brussels were edited by Axel Claes into a short snapshot. The short, volatile fragments give an impression of an occupied city, just when the parade, headed by king Baudouin/ Boudewijn, runs over the inner city, raising looks of awe and amazement with its military display...

Johan Grimonprez
“Yesterday Salam Khamas, at the age of 93, married Mrs.Um Ahmed, at the tender age of 105, in the town of Basra, Iraq. It was sunny. The newly weds were both found dead in their honeymoon bed this morning. Mrs.Um Ahmed was still wearing her wedding dress...

Vito Acconci
In this video Acconci let the public sphere smash against the private sphere in the form of a ritual performance wherein the artist alternated between exposing himself and censoring himself. We see the artist bent over a tape recorder. On it the voice of a man was audible – Acconci himself – who contracts a consent and exposes the intimate details of his life...
