DEUX OISEAUX CHANTENT

Jacques Louis Nyst
Two characters wonder about birdsong. One of them affirms that a page of text lies at the origin. The dialogue that ensues is evocative of a series of images of familiar objects and of the snowed over countryside of Presseux Village. The influence of the winter landscape orients the conversation towards the idea of whiteness and silence. The action slows down...

EVENTO

Marie André
André brings her minimal yet elegantly sensual aesthetic to this interpretation of dance for video. She writes that Evento is "a spectacle of dance filmed within the natural decor of a hangar. [It explores] opposition, the duality of two dancers in a variety of architectural movements that emphasize the dancers' strength...

PILGRIM WORLD

Ria Pacquée

SCISSORS

BLACK RAIN WHITE SCARS

Lukas Marxt
Black Rain White Scars depicts a twilight of reality. With the steady shot of a Gotham-like cityscape, Lukas Marxt guides us between vestiges of visionary architecture and narrow planted apartment buildings. As we’re searching for our relational point within it, the overwhelming murmuring of the human, car, and boat traffic, at the same time marginalises our position...

BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS - THE ANGST ARCHIVE

Ken Kobland
Kobland’s quiet, meditative video is a philosophical investigation, a travelogue of sorts, and, ultimately, a probing essay-film in the tradition of Aleksandr Sokurov or a late Godard...

KUNST ALS KRITIEK. WANNEER IS KUNST WEL KRITIEK? 4. WANNEER DE KUNSTENAAR IN ALLE ERNST SPEELT [BRT VERSION]

Jef Cornelis
This film is part of a series of short sketches thematic focusing on the question Wanneer is Kunst Wel Kritiek? (When is Art Criticism?). For this fourth episode, the answer – which also serves as title – is “when the artist is toying around in all seriousness”. How can it happen? 'Many a true word is spoken in jest' seems to tell us the Belgian artist Jef Geys (°1934)...

JONAS

Olivier Dekegel
A short portrait of and homage to the legendary filmmaker Jonas Mekas, generally considered as one of the major exponents of the avant-garde movement in the American cinematic landscape of the 1950s and ‘60s...

YEAH, IN THE BATHROOM

Messieurs Delmotte
Delmotte, wearing a black-and-white striped costume and matching make-up, pretends to be an American rockstar. In an incomprehensible accent he brags about his concert-tour, the media and his home in Texas. This work is part of the series FränZ ünd KoFöN...
