Abstract

In ''Domestic Flight'', the viewer is not confronted with traces of what has been. Rather, each scene allows us a glimpse into the action of the story Camille Picquot is unfolding. Released of its burden of proof, photography can now fully be applied to its new purpose: to visually narrate and suggest a fictional story. In her artistic work, Picquot is equally at ease with photography as she is with film. Applying and mixing common practices of these media, she never places one above the other, but rather reinforces them both. In ''Domestic Flight'', Picquot does not shy away from adding a playful cameo of herself in the series, possibly hinting at Alfred Hitchcock's famous appearances. (Rein Deslé)

Abstract

The first publication of Renée Lorie (b. 1989), a Brussels based photographer – is a photografic journey into undefined landscapes and interiors. The black and white photographs are full of magical moments, uncertain feelings and surreal light.‘A lot of images you see here were made during the end of a period of loss. Close beloved ones that passed away. When you go through this intense process of letting go, looking back, trying to hold on, forever is a strong compulsion. You want to latch onto these past certainties, in order to avoid the confrontation of constant changeand dissociation, processes unique to life. Photography serves as a consolation to impossibly embrace what was.’With an accompanying text on the young oeuvre of the artist by Steven Humblet

Abstract

The Belgian artist Francis Alÿs (b. Antwerp, 1959) makes work that is as multifaceted as it is poetically subversive. Straddling the line between performative conceptual art and community intervention, his films and drawings chart the political and social realities of urban spaces. One of his most imposing long-term projects is Children's Games, for which he documents children playing all over the world, from Paris and Mexico City to the Yezidi refugee camp Sharya in Iraq. The richly illustrated book contains ideas and sketches he compiled in preparation for this series. It lets us glimpse into the engine room of his artistic practice, revealing key elements of his filmic poetics. An essay by the ethnographer and filmmaker David MacDougall embeds Alÿs's observations of children's play in the contexts of childhood studies as well as the history of ethnographic documentary film. -- (publisher's description)

Abstract

Although trained as a painter and draughtsman, David Claerbout (1969) has been taking Belgium and the world by storm with his videos. He works, in his own words, hard but slowly, and he likes to test the endurance of his audience. His films may be as long as 13 hours, he undermines the classic cinema, and teaches us to look in a new way that he calls 'observing'. Claerbout composes his films in his own studio, where he turns thousands of stills and scans into slowly moving films. He expect his public not to be in a hurry and to be prepared to take the time to experience his images. In this first catalogue of his oeuvre, his film and video projects are subjected to serious analysis on the basis of production photos, design sketches and pictures of installations. This offers an exciting point of entry into the method, artistic programme and aesthetic development of the artist.

Abstract

Politics and media are constantly dealing with the shifting definitions of facts, truth, reality, and fiction. Yet this is something the field of documentary art has been addressing for much longer. The contributions in this volume are from and about artists who explore the boundaries between fact and fiction by playing with the notion of the 'documentary'. The book draws from a wide range of documentary art practices, such as working with archival materials or scrutinising one's own subjective stance as an artist. It observes how artists deploy the fine line between fact and fiction as a means to imagine versions of the future, and how it can still have an impact in the world of today.

Abstract

"Contemporary artists often borrow, steal, recycle or sample from earlier works. The classic fairy tale with its wondrous, sometimes fearsome creatures is one of the themes that is frequently reverted to. Dragons, fairies, gnomes and witches are omnipresent in today's art. Taking advantage of the sociological and psychological impact of fairy tales, artists thankfully tap into this magical universe and combine or alter the fairy tale images in new, contemporary pieces. Age-old castles, hidden caves, forbidden rooms or impenetrable woods are repeatedly seen as backdrops for art installations, video art, paintings or sculptures. For artists, these fantastic stories from the fairy world function as a magical mirror for the complexity of human relations and interactions."

Abstract

Dit boek gaat, zoals de titel allesbehalve vaag doet vermoeden, over cinema, maar het gaat ook over Marc Didden en zijn rijkgevulde filmgerelateerde leven tot nu toe. Hij schrijft over zijn persoonlijke belevenissen in de wereld van de cinema, zijn indrukken en ontmoetingen, en zijn liefde voor het medium. Zoals in alles wat hij schrijft, deelt Didden op die manier flink wat ?verkapte memoires?; tegelijk leest het als een geschiedenis van een stukje van de Nederlandstalige Belgische film-en tv-wereld, inclusief een unieke en volstrekt niet-neutrale blik achter de schermen.In het tweede deel van dit boek laat Marc Didden anderen aan het woord om zelf in de rol van interviewer te kruipen, in gesprekken (meestal in opdracht van Humo) met twaalf wereldbekende en gelauwerde nationale en internationale filmmakers.https://nl.lusterpublishing.com/products/over-cinema?_pos=1&_sid=b8db12b1c&_ss=r
