THE VANISHING VANISHING-POINT

Effi Weiss - Amir Borenstein
Since autumn 2005 Effi and Amir have been following an olive tree that was planted in the Parc Leopold, a small and well-tended park at the feet of the European Parliament, and a few dozens of meters away from their apartment in Brussels. The Olive tree, as foreign as them, appeared in the park several weeks after their own arrival in this city...

THIS IS NOT BEIRUT (THERE WAS AND THERE WAS NOT)

THE INVISIBLES' PARLIAMENT

Vincent Meessen
The narrative in ‘The Invisibles’ Parliament’ is based on ghost images. Two apparitions emerge from the darkness and lead us towards a still fountain where a crowd is waiting for them.

THE HUNDRED VIDEOS 42. MY PERSONAL VIRUS

REEL TO REEL

Teresa Cos
Accompanied 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...

SOTHEBY'S

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...
