About analytical or poetic language and what it can bring or subtract to images. Lawrence Weiner uses gestures related to the act of reading, abstract assembling of graphic forms and images of dices. Corinna Schnitt presents an idyllic Alpine landscape, where a dozen nude women are lying in high grass. The women seem to have become part of nature, as if “from another world”. Excerpts from Habernas appear on screen and we are facing a lack of communication. Francis Naranjo directs the encounter of visual, sound and textual information, a net in which the look, the hearing and the subconscious reflect on each other. Augustin Parra presents a self-portrait in and by gestures, the impossible attempt to auto-catch a hand. Laetitia Benat uses the text written by a psychiatrist nurse and has her play her role. Architecture constrain bodies and the stare keeps under surveillance Niklas Goldbach films 60 people lying in the unrenovated basement floor at Palais de Tokyo, a disco bal lis slowly rotating above them. Christian Merlhiot films a Japanese teacher, who tells an inexplicable event that happened to her class during an outing in the mountains. The story is taken from a report mentioned by Haruki Murakami in its novel “Kafka on the shore”.

Philippe GRANDRIEUX : Un lac
Fiction | 35mm | color | 01:30:00
France | 2007
 [•]

The story takes place in a country from which we do not know anything. North. The light is strong. The sun never goes high up in the sky. It stays on the horizon line. Things have to happen suddenly. Nothing prepares to them. It just happens. Scenes are linked from the underground by deep currents, invisible on the surface of the earth. Little dialogue. Retorts are quick. The film is a tragedy. The strength of cinema is to enable us to inhabit a world, as the dreamer inhabits his dream. Thus, we walk in the image. (Philippe Grandrieux)

MULTIMEDIA CONCERTS

The PINK TWINS : Pink Twins Live
Multimedia concert | | | 00:30:00
Finland | 2008
 [•]
As plastic artists expressing themselves through sound and sound artists using visual effects, Pink Twins have created some link between their sound and visual works. They try to intimately bring together fragments from daily life, which do not necessary have anything in common. They start with fragments of images, sounds, sensations, which we have to deal with on a daily basis. They separate those fragments in small particles and reassemble them in a audacious way, starting from chaos, according to a unified artistic sensibility.


TELCOSYSTEM : Mortals electric
Multimedia performance | hd 5.1 surround | color | 00:35:00
Pays-Bas | 2008
 [•]
With their latest live performance Telcosystems return to their roots of digital audiovisuals. Interacting with their machines to create generative cinema, treating the auditive and visual domain as a unity. Restrained and lucid imagery, layers of strobing structures in synchrony with seemingly neverending pounding waves, howling drones and screaming digital noise.
