THE DISTANCE BETWEEN US
Jan Locus'The Distance Between Us' takes its starting point in some audio cassettes artist and photographer Jan Locus received from a Moroccan family in Molenbeek a few years ago. Probably going back to the early 1980s, the cassettes contain an oral correspondence between families in Brussels and Morocco. These anonymous audio letters bear witness to the pain of those who stayed at home...
THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 79. THE BOXERS
Steve ReinkePure sensation. Pillow of flesh. White cotton sheets. Emerge into daylight. Spring mechanism....
CROSSING ASIDE
Mira Sanders - Cédric NoëlThe film crossing aside is conceived as a phenomenological portrait of the Annie Vande Wiele pedestrian and bicycle bridge. It approaches the bridge not only as something people live with and use, but as something that itself lives and makes a space...
AUTOPORTRAIT CONTRE NATURE
Michel FrançoisA character in a blue shirt is filmed with a fixed camera, in slow motion. We hear the echo of his footsteps. It’s the artist himself: this is an “auto portrait contra nature”. François lights up a cigarette while glass bottles start raining down around him: they shatter noisily, yet miraculously without ever hitting him...

HOW PHOTOGRAPHS ARE STORED IN THE BRAIN
Steve Reinke‘How Photographs Are Stored in the Brain’ assembles an archive of photographs and phonograph recordings discovered in an empty house. They are not my photographs or (presumably) your photographs, so they stand in for the idea of a family archive. A ruthless animation, sentimental and quietly mocking, yet perhaps still able to evoke sadness and longing....
CANTAERT HUNTER 8906020
Ria PacquéeIn 'Cantaert Hunter 8906020’, a figure is depicted running through a cornfield. This figure is split into three, as the work cuts between three films of the woman running while wearing different clothes and hairstyles. In the streams, the corn leaves brush harshly across her face, simultaneously caressing and hitting her...
WE
Shelly Silver"Even as the text instructs us otherwise, it is impossible not to read We’s two images - that is, to respond to their symbolic quality, their suggestiveness. In a stream of associations, the rhythmic flow of people on the left becomes an ejaculation while the rhythmic hand on the right marks detachment, self-centeredness...
A BOY NEEDS A FRIEND
Steve ReinkeSteve Reinke ostensibly turns to the subjects of friendship and intimacy in "A Boy Needs A Friend", in particular investigating the notion of queer Nietzschean friendship...
DE ZEGE VAN DE SLANG / LE TRIOMPHE DU SERPENT
Jan VrommanAn ode to simplicity. In this video the universe is reduced to the limits of a terrarium. But since the setting is rather barren and the beast so solitary, God separates the sky from the earth and populates the world with animals and plants. But then he commits a grave error by installing men in the centre of this universe, because before one notices, hell itself brakes loose....
