PRUEBAS

Ardélia Istarú
In 1982, accompanying my father to Paris, my Costa Rican mother sent a series of letters to her parents when she arrived in the French capital. Forty years later, I found these letters and revisit a story full of pain in order to better understand my own arrival on the continent....

EGG MUSIC

Filip Francis
The same performance as in the video ‘Mensen en eieren’ (‘People and Eggs’), where people dressed in white are throwing eggs, is recorded from the other side. Now the viewer can see the eggs getting smashed against a white wall. The wall gets completely covered in egg yolk...

HAUT LES COEURS

Lucile Desamory
“The Brain is wider than the Sky”. This sentence by Emily Dickinson appears, as magically written by an invisible hand in the film by Lucile Desamory Haut les Coeurs. The heroine walks in the snow, arrives home and falls asleep (or maybe duplicates herself) on the sofa. Follows a wandering through a fantastic landscape, through giant swans and dinosaurs...

YVES SOMVILLE DANS LE RÔLE DE JESUS-CHRIST

Jacques Lennep
Video, apart from photography and holography, was but one of the media Lennep made use of during the 1970s, as he was adding on to his ‘museum of men’. His human models were derived from all layers of the populations, but they shared a common obsession for collecting things or, at the very least, an unusual passion...

ROMANTICOS DE LAS MARISMAS

Luc Gobyn - Luke Aaron Clark - Luismí Garcia

Joëlle de La Casinière - Michel Bonnemaison
Two Japanese actors read passages from ‘L’Empire des signes’ by Roland Barthes. His structural meditations on specific aspects of oriental culture – in this case specifically on the Japanese language and kitchen – are illustrated and substantiated by an entanglement of words, writing and image...

GRAVITY

Nicolas Provost
Playing with the physiological and cinematographic principle of the after-image, Provost causes dozens of fast-edited kissing scenes from European and American film classics to collide...

PRUNE TOURNE

Michel François
A longhaired woman, whirling round, filmed from above. Her waving hair causes a pattern, taking on a new shape with every turn. This image, both photographic and sculptural, provides a kind of commentary on François’ work....

ONE OF US

Koen Theys
In a misty white landscape an endless procession of people roams as in a procession. They are characters from the three largest processions of Flanders. They look like figures from old Bible movies. The men are wearing fake beards, dusty robes and fake long-haired wigs; the women have exaggerated make-up and wear long robes and burkas...

TRACE

Peter Downsbrough
TRACE revisits the site of an earlier Downsbrough video, A] PART (2009). The location for both works, Brussels’s iconic Citroen garage, opened to great fanfare in 1934 as the largest automobile service center in Europe...
