FRAGMENTS

Shelly Silver
"Fragments is an ongoing series of short videotapes ranging in length from 6 seconds to two minutes. These tapes can be seen as small drawings or sketches, bringing together pieces of ideas, overheard conversation and glimpsed images. They can also be seen, because of their structure and length, as advertising that doesn’t sell anything." (Source: https://www.shellysilver.com)...

LE ROBOT

Jacques Louis Nyst
The robot in 'Le Robot’ is as a matter of fact a broken spring from the Nysts’ bed. Here it appears as a giant that a hand attempts to flatten, but ends up releasing. As the “robot” breaks free, we hear a bird singing. 'Le Robot’ is one of Jacques-Louis Nyst’s earlier experiences with the medium...

UNTITLED PART 2: BEAUTY AND THE EAST

Jayce Salloum
Part 2 in a series of attempts at concretizing the notion of interstitiality, this videotape addresses issues of nationalism & the nation state, polarities of time, alienation, the refusal & construction of political identities, ethno-fascism, the body as object & metaphor, agents, monsters & abjectness, subjective affinities, and objective trusts...

Harald Thys - Jos De Gruyter
In the woods a strange character is discovered by the local authorities. A couple of scientists under the supervision of a doctor and an examining magistrate go into the matter and try to discover who the reticent man is....

A STRANGE NEW BEAUTY

Shelly Silver
A disturbing intrusion into the luxurious homes of Silicon Valley. Using an aggressive soundtrack and a full frame often fractured into small rectangles covered by text, Silver reveals a deafening violence behind the glittering beauty and deceptively calm of this suburban landscape...

WAAROVER MEN NIET SPREEKT 1: HOME SWEET HOME

Jef Cornelis
’Home Sweet Home’ is a manifesto against the dictatorship of the bourgeois notion of the ideal home. ’I rented a house with a garden’ is still a current slogan, even if people buy apartments, villas and country-houses. People attempt to hide themselves in their homes and as a consequence a kind of social isolation arises that prevents the necessary community spirit...
