A L'OMBRE DE L'HYPERBOLOÏDE
Lucile DesamoryIn several respects the films of Lucile Desamory savour of the work by Stan Vanderbeek, who extracted a style of his very own from an amalgam of film, drawings and stopaction animation – and it’s no coincidence that this style became a source of inspiration for the absurd animations by Terry Gilliam...

STAGING SILENCE (1)
Hans Op de BeeckAfter experiencing many similar public places, the artist found that they collectively lingered in his memory as abstracted, archetypal spaces.

TANIA, MODÈLE POUR PHOTOS DE CHARME
Jacques LennepVideo, 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...
TOPIC I & II
Pascal BaesThe French film theorist André Bazin used to consider film as a spell of time. He spoke triumphantly of a victory on the irreversibility and the transitoriness of life. Baes’s ’Topic I & II’ (the painterly quality of its dusky images is for a good reason reminiscent of Francis Bacon’s strokes) seems to question these transcendent views on cinematography...
COMPOSITIE
Marie AndréAndré re-organizes time, rhythm and sound in her portrait of the new music composer/pianist Walter Hus, constructing a study of the process of composing.
