ET / C
Peter DownsbroughWith his videos Downsbrough creates natural portraits of urban environments. Everyday surroundings are observed, dissected and transformed into architectural illustrations, with a proper sense of order and chaos.

GONZALEZ 2
Angel VergaraBlack and white images illustrate the term of office of the Spanish prime minister Felipe González Márquez, who was prime minister of Spain from the end of 1982 until 1996.

MADAME PAUL SIX, UNE FERMIÈRE QUI A DES LETTRES
Jacques LennepVideo, apart from photography and holography, was but one of the media Lennep made use of during the 1970s, as he was adding on to his ‘museum of men’. His human models were derived from all layers of the populations, but they shared a common obsession for collecting things or, at the very, least an unusual passion...

TEMPS D’HIVER
Marie AndréIn the heart of winter, a filmmaker is at work. Her work encompasses her life, the place of her body in within the season, her past, cinema, her friends and colleagues from Brussels (Alexandra Dementieva, Boris Lehman...). These observations by André are visualised in a minimalist way, but also with intimacy and richness in emotions and detail...
