OVERVIEW TITLES

INTERLUDE

Bernard Gigounon
Little experiences of everyday, an acceleration of the yield of a copy machine, a tribute to Jean Renoir, a videogame, 24 image-seconds piled on top of each other and the results of an encounter of the children of the Brussels neighbourhood Marollen with the medium video....

HOMMAGE À … III

Lili Dujourie
The five videos of Hommage à … deal with the same theme as repetition-in-difference, as a continual tracing and retracing, of the figure fold and unfold in the visual field.
