ENTRE NOUS QUELQUE CHOSE SE PASSE...

Ria Pacquée
In the work of Ria Pacquée the relative and the existential converge. She records her presence and that of others in this world, using photography and recently video, like traces of social archaeology. Pacquée begins with the premise that life doesn’t necessarily revolve around knowing and grasping, but that everything starts with breathing and a longing for otherness...

THE IMBECILE

Hubert Marécaille
Devoid of close friends, a wealthy man, with perverse pleasures and lack of company, invites his aquaintances into his homes and gains the sympathy of his sons, promising an advantageous inheritance that another son refuses, causing irritation and total incomprehension, – irritation also created by his wife, that the man has bought her jewelry with his fortune "acquired honestly", insists du...

BRASILIA

Robert Suermondt
It is astonishing to see to which degree the sequences of persons can look like real scenes of fiction. The inhabitants of Brasilia – most of them are officials – run around from one office to another without wearing a jacket. In their shirtsleeves they look like men of action. Showing them from a distance makes them look like small puppets placed in a scale model replica of the city...

CASSEURS D'IMAGES 1993-2004 (PART 1)

Michel François
- ’Frigolith’ (extract): Tiny Styrofoam balls, blasted by an invisible force. They seem caught in the screen. The fixed frame prevents us from seeing what they’re in, where they’re coming from. The tight framing closes the image in order to open it. - ’Passage nuageux’: A shadow is cast over a desert-mountain...

TROU

Michel François
A close-up on two hands as they try to dig a hole in the ground. The speed of the video is accelerated which gives a nervous tension, enforced by the sound, to this seemingly neverending task....

THE RUNAWAY

Jan Dietvorst
A Dutchman speaks with authority about the ideas and customs of 'others'. It is the stereotype contrast between 'us' and 'them'. Gradually the relationship between these two becomes more ambiguous, the protagonists appear to be part of each others mythology....

LOW TIDE

Lukas Marxt
A glacier. Icebergs. Floating icebergs. Cold fog gliding through the folds since eras. There is not much to see. As there is hardly something. Actually nothing. One speaks of polar bears and goes ashore only armed. One speaks of the cold and goes below. But actually there is only water. An element in variation. Water, ice and fog. Can you see anything? Something different? I don´t think so...
