PIANISTE

Michel François
Filmed from above, a beggar with a Casio toy on his lap. A few cents in the dish. Street noise. Pretend playing. The Casio’s sample tunes : Mozart’s Turkish March for instance. Passers by don’t notice his make-believe. They don’t truly see him. When others would tend to shut their eyes, the spectator keeps them wide open....

TEST

Pascal Baes
These experiments for Baes’s stop motion film ‘46 bis, rue de Belleville’ are an art work in its own right. The stop motion technique he uses belongs to the realm of animation. He never handles the camera in an obvious way, but shoots frame per frame in order to come up with a dreamlike staccato effect...

AVV-VVK, EEN SCENARIO / AVV-VVK, UN SCENARIO

Jan Vromman
How do you convince the government that they should grant your project on the theme “Alles voor Vlaanderen/Vlaanderen voor Christus” (“Everything for Flanders/Flanders for Christ”)? The decision-makers are not fundamentally opposed to it, but they want to see something to motivate their choice...

INTERNATIONAL TOURISM

Marie Voignier
How an individual or group relates to other things/the Other that are situated far-off, is highlighted in the absolute cliché of the tourist. For indeed, at his or her destiny the tourist who wants to escape the everyday narrow-mindedness is supposed to pay little or no heed to the ‘reality’ of the other place...

... BECAUSE SUPERGLUE IS FOREVER!!!

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...

CITY OF PROGRESS

Justin Bennett
"A city could start like this drawing: first there`s an empty space and then an event: a dot on the paper." The animated film ’City of Progress’ traces the growth of an imaginary city as it expands from a single dot into a proliferation of lines and geometric forms, representing the physical development of a city...

FINLAND - TALLINN

Didier Volckaert
"This video has been constructed out of 12 colorslides I took on vacation: An architectural journey to Finland with a change of direction towards Talinn. One of the many trips I made under guidance of my old teacher and always-mentor Gilbert Decouvreur. Distortion (snow) visualizes the failure of communicating the emotions we experienced to others. Video is an illusion of the image...

LOOKING FORWARD, FRAGMENTING THE EDGES OF LOVE

Geoffroy De Volder
The screen was evenly divided over four frames on which fragments of wildlife documentaries, film classics and interviews with the makers and other artists are shown for the period of one hour, alternating with each other. Apart from a couple of formal similarities this hybrid conglomerate of found footage seems to show little coherence on the face of it...

XY 02

Edith Dekyndt
A circle of silk thread shakes hands, passes from one to another, winds, wandering, as if he were alive. The image is presented in video-projection, leaving the terrain of the hands and the curves of the wire appear on the wall like a mural....

EEN OPENBAAR BAD VOOR MUNSTER

Jef Cornelis
’Kasper König’s Münster Sculpture Project’ is an event held every ten years in Münster, a small city in the Rhine valley both near Cologne and Frankfurt. Münster got catapulted back in 1977, when curator König and Münster museum chief Klaus Bussmann set up a show of public art in the city...
