OVERVIEW TITLES

THE NAMES HAVE CHANGED, INCLUDING MY OWN, AND TRUTHS HAVE BEEN ALTERED

Onyeka Igwe
This is a story of the artist’s grandfather, the story of the ‘land’ and the story of an encounter with Nigeria—retold at a single point in time, in a single place. The artist is trying to tell a truth in as many ways as possible...

LE SPECTATEUR

Michel Lorand
The Medea installation is made up of a large, square table with four video monitors. A single actor or actress is seen on three of the four monitors, from the waist up and frontal. The fourth monitor shows only text. The starting point is a short prose piece written by Lorand about a young woman intending to kill her two children after the end of her relationship with their father...

A PEE, A POOP, A PLATE, PARADISE (HEIDI IN DREAMLAND)

Ken Kobland
…the dog in dreamland? Or is it me?...

UNE TENTATIVE DE DÉFINIR LA NOTION DE TRANSITION

Mira Sanders
An attempt at thinking the exhibition space in earlier and contemporary times. A drawing and thinking that are superimposing themselves and that blur the view of the spectator. We travel in the movie through different space and time transitions. We realise that the act of listing does not define transition(s), it is the act of moving that does....

DE ZEEMANNEN EN HET SCHIP

Harald Thys

Once upon a time they were brave seamen on a beautiful ship, led by a fantastic captain.

MIROIR SÉB FRAGILE !

Sirah Foighel Brutmann - Eitan Efrat
Miroir séb fragile ! is a music-film made for cinematographer Sébastien Koeppel. The film was shot in a two-day recording session that was an experimentation in improvisation—in music and in image making. It was filmed on Sébastien’s various 16mm film stocks, some of which were long expired. The music was played live by The Ramirez Brothers...

STILL

Michel Lorand
STILL is filmed in the curve of a motorway tunnel. The film, shot entirely in black and white, begins with the ringing sound of a gong, which takes several minutes to fade out. Together with the dying echoes of the instrumental sound, the images slow down as well, until the frame seems to freeze at the end of the film....

RUE DE L'AVENIR

Philippe Van Damme
Van Damme’s main preoccupation seems to be time, or better: the visualisation of time. For ’Rue de l’Avenir’ he uses 45 photos of a straight track or (re)construction: the track for a new subway line in Molenbeek (Brussels). The editing moves up and down among this mutilated city-space: a witty study on time and the changing environment...
