BORDER
Hans Op de Beeck’Border’ is projected life-size and opens with the image of a number of people sitting down in an oppressively small, square space. We can hear them whispering, sighing, coughing. Then a life-size x-ray image slowly appears over the total surrounding of this environment, the image of a truck crammed with goods...
WANK STALLIONS
Alison Murray’Wank Stallions’ is a piece that addresses male identity, using two black actors and a gay, white skinhead. The video tests the territory of masculinity between two extremes, the wanker and the stallion...
PEINTURE À L'HUILE N°3
Thomas BernardetThe video camera records the motor of a running car filmed in close-up for 45mn....
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....
S.O.L.
Robert SuermondtThe camera zooms in on the moving figures behind the closing titles of the film ‘Silence of The Lambs’ (1991, Jonathan Demme). The camera movements, screening the people and the space behind the titles, open up a new fictional space....
THE NATION
Pieter GeenenThe isolated people of Nagorno-Karabakh are living in a time vacuum since the cease fire of 1994. They live in a de facto independent country, but remain unrecognized as such by the international community. This area is still subject of an unresolved and long forgotten conflict which is the result of the collapse of the Soviet Union...
THE NIGHT BEFORE
Charley CaseThis video is inspired by haptonomy, an affective, physical form of prenatal communication with the foetus. When a hand is placed on an expectant mother’s belly, her unborn baby responds by moving close to it and, if the hand moves, by following its position. In the video this interaction is simulated by the projection of a film on a pregnant belly...
REEL TO REEL
Teresa CosAccompanied by a solemn chant - which slowly becomes the feedback sound of a distorted guitar in loop - the miniature boats of the Mini-Europe theme park in Brussels appear one after the other, seamlessly. The models fade into each other intersecting reflections of great European landscapes, leaving the way to an eerie underwater world...
THE JOYCEAN SOCIETY
Dora GarcíaA group of people have been reading a book together for thirty years. They have been reading it again and again, with each journey from the first to the last page taking eleven years. Once they reach the last word, a very enigmatic "the," they begin again with the first word, "riverrun." The text appears inexhaustible, its interpretation endless, the inconclusive nature of the reading exciting...
