ENJAMBEMENT
Lili DujourieWe 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...
THE PERFECT WAVE
Nicolas ProvostThe Perfect Wave is a fascinating looped video of a surfer who keeps going and going on what indeed looks like a perfect wave. It’s a metaphor for what the artist calls the human desire for an endless orgasm....

OOG EN HAND ALS UITDRUKKING 02
Jef CornelisFor the art programme 'Openbaar Kunstbezit' Cornelis made two essayistic television reports in 1972 about the use of hands and eyes in the visual arts, “a way to look and to communicate.” Once more, 'Oog en hand als uitdrukking 02' ('Eye and hand as expression 02') is particularly free with regard to its format, bearing in mind the television standards of the time...
BERLAYMONT DREAMING
