Gorik LindemansGorik Lindemans is obsessed with books, or rather with looking at books. In his video he guides us through this fascinating picture-book ‘Flandren. Das Germanische Volksgesicht’, with splendid photographs of Flemish farmers and landscapes from the early forties by Erna Lendvai-Dircksen...
PILGRIM WORLD
Ria PacquéeJerusalem, a city fraught with symbolism and weighty associations. Ria Pacquée films the course of a river of pilgrims from above, following the steps of people from all three religions as they make their own journeys and experience their own personal transformations...
PHANTOM SUN
Alexis DestoopIn 2013 Alexis Destoop embarked on a series of travels to the border area between Norway and Russia – a counter-point with Australia: the cold and dark, snow and ocean are completely the opposite of the warm, sunny, dry desert climate. And yet both regions are subject to similar processes, hence the artist’s interest...
TOPOLOGIC
Cel CrabeelsCrabeels’s work ‘Topologic’ records the prolonged contortions of a man attempting to put on, and to take off again, a piece of clothing. Here the body is used both as a terrain of experiment, and as a metaphor for artist’s labour of inhabiting space in general...

GOD MOVES ON THE WATER
Erik BüngerIn this intriguing and at times startling exploration of narrative, Bünger collides two very different interpretations of the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. The music video of Céline Dion’s ’My heart will go on’, featuring clips from the 1997 film ’Titanic’, is manipulated to fit a much earlier blues song about the same event...
APHASIA 3RD CHAPTER
Jelena JurešaThe starting point of Jelena Jureša’s interest in the evolution of a narrative constituting the final episode of Aphasia is a single photograph, which is never shown in the work, but its presence is almost tangible, heavy, almost to the point of materialising before our eyes. We identify it in speech, we identify it in motion. It is heard, but not directly seen...

ATOMIC TREE
Charley Case“We belong to this tree, we are all connected to the very same trunk. Even when we are far away, like the leaves, it’s still the same story. When a leaf falls, it turns into humus and so the cycle starts once again.” (Charley Case) ...
A Lecture on Schizophonia, Erik Bünger, 2009 © the artist & producer
A LECTURE ON SCHIZOPHONIA
Erik BüngerRecordings of sound and image are all-pervasive in the modern world, and sometimes seem to have a life of their own. Erik Bünger’s ’lecture’ – a narrative voiced over a series of images, clips and quotations – explores what happens when the recording and the original source become separated or confused...
