VIOL

Angel Vergara
Two folded hands are pushing on a womans face which itself is covered by long hair. This scene is as intimate as uncomfortable to watch or witness...

DEUTSCHLAND IM HERBST

Alexander Kluge
Germany, October 1977: the murder of Schleyer, Mogadishu, the mysterious death of Andreas Baader, Gudrun Ensslin and Jan-Carl Raspe. A country in chaos, in a spiral of violence, fear and hysteria...

THE THINGS (EUROPE)

Florian Gwinner
A tracking shot shows the slow transformation of a room model into a black plain surface, ending up in a roundabout taxi drive meditation. The repetition of variations of the same....

CONTAINED MOBILITY

Ursula Biemann
’Contained Mobility’ concentrates on the suspended time-space of translocal existences, and the politics of mobility and containment. The video project looks at the situation currently emerging from the changes to, and prompted by, the regulation of movement across Europe’s borders...

REPÉRAGE

Herman Asselberghs
Why not remake 'Zabriskie Point'? Michelangelo Antonioni's early seventies film was about contemporary America seen from a distance. ‘Moi, j’ai regardé l’Amérique telle qu’elle m’est apparue, sans savoir ce qu’elle est,’ the Italian director stated, philosophically downplaying his thorough research into late sixties U.S. turmoil...

THE BRIDGE (1)

Monsieur Delmotte
Delmotte hangs over a bridge and shits on the highway. This work is part of the series 'Rejected videos'...

ORNAMENTE DES WILLENS

Koen Theys
Using the same images as in ‘Mediastudien (nach Heinrich Hoffmann)’, Koen Theys continues here in transforming Hitler’s body as a decorative ornament. The title is a combination of ‘Das Massornament’ by Siegfried Kracauer and ‘Triumph des Willens’ by Leni Riefenstahl. The piano was improvised in realtime with the projection of the video....

PRÉLUDE N°3

Bernard Gigounon
“It all happened one evening. I was in a bar, quietly having a drink. A man sat down beside me and as we were alone, we started talking together. We spoke about red wine, women and music and at this moment, I realized that this man was Claude Debussy. I told him that I made videos and explained my work to him...

PASSAGE DE 1 À 2

Gary Bigot
A half naked man is standing in a room. His body is slowly heading towards the window, but the man isn’t moving. He seems to be on a conveyer. Or is he under the influence of a tracking beam?...
