OVERVIEW TITLES

ALONG THE SIDES ALONG

Mira Sanders
Mira Sanders explores the potential of journeying to touch upon and visualise cultural, historical and sensory limits. For Along the Sides Along, Sanders retraces the boundaries of her own oeuvre by employing the methods of inventorising, cataloguing and exploration...

4. DOWN / 6. ACROSS

Ken Kobland
Blocks and squares, a fragmented view from the side into cosy lit up apartments in the big city. Sofas, staircases, lampposts, tables with flowers. Dreamy piano music underlines this literally puzzled view on contemporary living. Suddenly the music and mood switches: we are in a jazzy and dynamic dreamscape somewhat reminiscent of Mondriaan’s masterful ‘Victory Boogie-Woogie...

13

Patrick Bernatchez
13 is perhaps the most literal portrait of the building, employing as it does a vertically descending tracking shot through each of the twelve floors...

PROVISORY OBJECT 03

Edith Dekyndt
Like the pieces ‘Provisory Object 01’ and ‘Provisory Object 02’, Dekyndt’s video shows the membrane of a soap bubble, in this case stretched between the thumb and finger of a hand...

THE WORLDWIDE WEB OF SORROWS

Koen Theys
The video contains a few hundred excerpts of clips found on YouTube, showing women trying to grab the attention of the viewer by crying in front of their webcam, sitting alone in their apartment. Some of them are silently sobbing, while others are loudly crying out their despair...

THE LOGIC JACKET

Messieurs Delmotte
One sunny late afternoon, a man hangs his jacket in a tree on a rather unconventional way. This work is part of the series UNDO / REDO...

23 STOREYS

Ilona Ruegg
'23 Storeys’ refers to the 23 levels of the Tour Centrale, also known as the 'Lotto Building’ in Brussels. At the time of the shooting, the building was completely empty. The camera first moves from the 5th level up the fire escape escape and then down from the 23rd floor through the empty corridors and rooms, always using the elevator from floor to floor, down to the 6th...

IJSBREKER 17: VAN TOETERS EN BLAZERS

Jef Cornelis - Stefaan Decostere - Karel Schoetens - Jackie Claeys
For the very first time the Flemish public broadcasting network lifts a corner of the veil which surrounds one of the main aspects of amateur art: the world of local musical associations, symphonic bands and brass bands. From Dutch Limburg a live report is transmitted of a large-scale symphonic band festival. At the same time the brass band Midden-Brabant responds over another satellite uplink...
