INCIDENT. EINE SKIZZE

Andreas Brehmer
Starting point of ’Incident. Eine Skizze’ are fragments of text, sound and image, all related to one another. Thus the length of the text determines the frequence of the images (details of one and the same picture), their colour, as well as text and sound, which, in turn interrupts the rhythm of text and image by its volume....

VIOLIN FASE

Eric Pauwels - Eric Pauwels - Eric Pauwels
A solo in two movements; dance and camera. Eric Pauwels twirls the camera around the body of Anne Teresa de Keersmaeker. What we see is not the geometrical and minimalist choreographic structure, but a possessed woman, bathing in sweat, exploring the boundaries of physical exhaustion. A solo in two movements: the dance and the camera. Four uninterrupted takes...

CASSEURS D'IMAGES 1993-2004 (PART 2)

Michel François
- Arpenteur: A caterpillar is crawling over a geographical map, exploring the borders of the surface. - ’Tourner’ (2): A man is carrying a beam on which the camera seems to be attached.

Eva Claus Any way

ANY WAY

Eva Claus
Any Way shows three people running together on an athletics track. The repetitive motion introduces the rhythm to a serene trance. The act of running itself is the focal point of the film: a continuous movement suspended in time. Varying frame rates allow the viewer to examine details of the motion that would otherwise be obscured by their own speed...

ENJAMBEMENT

Lili Dujourie
We are in a room with parquetry flooring. The artist, clothed in shirt and jeans, is moving about on the floor with the restlessness of the insomniac, performing sequences from her repertoire of horizontal motions developed in previous work. But when 'she' rolls over, we realize Dujourie has substituted a male model for herself...

LIBERATION RADIO

Esther Johnson
This is Liberation Radio. In 1968, a group of American military deserters went to the North Vietnamese mission in Stockholm with one object in mind – to join the army they had been drafted to fight. Instead, they were recruited for the propaganda war – and use magnetic tape, pop music and political rhetoric to persuade other American servicemen to desert...

THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 14. JOKE (VERSION TWO)

Steve Reinke
I never threw all the toys from my crib for the fun of having them returned to me....

LES DOUBRES

Thomas Bernardet - Laurent Vicente - Aymeric de Tapol
Grinding, sliding, leaping: skateboarding is definitely the subject here. In February 2000, after reading the complete works of Baudrillard, two characters and a camera re-enact the practice in an indoor setting. Boardless, objectless skateboarding, detached from any specific site, except everyday life.Thus everyday places and objects may become spaces to be activated...

THE FUCK

Messieurs Delmotte
Near a busy road Delmotte hangs a big sign on a statue, stating ‘Allez tous vous faire enculer’ (‘Fuck them all’). This work is part of the series 'Rejected videos'...

VAN BASSENGWERKER TOT HAVENARBEIDER (ANTWERPEN)

Jef Cornelis
In 1965 more than 13,000 labourers set to work every day in the port of Antwerp and even then, every day there was a shortage of workers. “The Antwerp docker is the quickest in the world,” we hear in this creative documentary, “though they never had any specific training for their job—except for the markers...
