Identity is a fiction : Exhibition with Céline Butaye & Indriķis Ģelzis from September 9th to October 22nd, 2016

ENG/
Céline Butaye constructs epoxy and polyester prisms that are, more than fixed shapes, objects including, absorbing or reflecting light. They are very reactive and inclusive objects, whose shape and perception depends on light, weather, environment, and also on some coincidences during their production processes. As a collection of prisms, they are very flexible and constitute a kind of endless puzzle that can always be rearranged together according to space and time. They change the space they are included in, as well as they are changed by it.
Indriķis Ģelzis builds up sculptures, borrowing from the classical abstract vocabulary as well as from the language of labour, its dress codes and statistic designs. The metal structures, surprisingly dressed, indicates a sham of human being, dehumanized, with a delicate dark humor. The theme of perception is very present in Indriķis Ģelzis’s work, focusing on knowing how a work of art is perceived, its conditions and paradoxes, and specially the individuality of any perceptive experience.
Both artist are placing the work of art in the heart of a series of relationships and interactions with the viewer. The work of art could be considered as a platform of discussions and exchanges between viewers, to debate about the meaning of the work and their implications. Considering the same object in different ways, viewers discover that the subject of identity is always questionable.
Because Céline Butaye & Indriķis Ģelzis‘s works are dealing more with observation and perceptive experiences, as an empiric process, they are resonating with Ali Benmakhlouf’s conception of identity. They show that a work of art, as an identity in the broad sense, does not have any fixed form or exhaustive closed description. As a french contemporary philosopher, Ali Benmakhlouf goes away from any cultural postulate, such as the idea of a permanent identity, that prevent us to understand the links between an individual and its culture, also cultures between each other and general civilization, and all their interactions.
In a way, Céline Butaye & Indriķis Ģelzis‘s works contribute to achieve Benmakhlouf’s wish : to never lock ourselves within civilizational and uncommunicative boxes.

Curator Yuna Mathieu-Chovet

FR/
Céline Butaye construit des prismes en époxy et polyester qui sont, plus que des formes fixes, des objets qui incluent, absorbent ou reflètent la lumière. Ces objets dont la forme et la perception dépendent de la lumière, du temps, de leur environnement, ainsi que de coïncidences durant leur processus de production, sont très réactifs et inclusifs. En tant que collection de prismes, ils sont flexibles et constituent une sorte de puzzle sans fin qui peut indéfiniment être réarrangé en fonction de l’espace et du temps. Ils changent l’espace dans lequel ils sont inclus aussi bien qu’ils sont changés par lui.
Indriķis Ģelzis élabore des sculptures empruntant au vocabulaire abstrait classique aussi bien qu’au langage du travail, ses codes vestimentaires et motifs statistiques. Ces structures métalliques, étonnamment habillées, suggèrent un simulacre, teinté d’un délicat humour noir, d’être humain déshumanisé. Le thème de la perception est très présent dans le travail d’Indriķis Ģelzis, questionnant particulièrement la façon dont une œuvre d’art est perçue, les conditions de son appréhension, ses paradoxes, en un mot, la singularité de toute expérience perceptive.
Les deux artistes placent l’œuvre au cœur d’une série de relations et d’interactions avec le spectateur. Le travail peut être considéré comme une plateforme de discussions et d’échanges avec ceux-ci, afin de débattre du sens de l’oeuvre et de ses implications. En considérant une même oeuvre de différentes façons, les spectateurs découvrent que le sujet même de l’identité est toujours discutable.
Le travail de Céline Butaye & d’Indriķis Ģelzis, en tant que processus empirique, traite d’observation et d’expériences perceptives et résonne ainsi avec la conception de l’identité d’Ali Benmakhlouf. Ces deux artistes montrent qu’une œuvre d’art, en tant qu’identité au sens large, n’a ni forme fixe ni description fermée exhaustive. Le philosophe français contemporain Ali Benmakhlouf s’écarte de tout postulat culturel, tel que l’idée de la permanence d’une identité qui nous empêche de comprendre les liens entre un individu et  sa culture, ceux qu’entretiennent différentes cultures, ainsi que l’ensemble de ses interactions avec la civilisation en général.
D’une certaine manière, le travail de  Céline Butaye & d’Indriķis Ģelzis contribue à réaliser le vœu de Benmakhlouf : ne jamais nous laisser enfermer dans des boîtes civilisationnelles et incommunicationelles.

OCULUS NON VIDIT, NEC AURIS AUDIVIT
an exhibition of new works by Tim Onderbeke
October 28 // November 20, 2016
Opening : Thursday, October 27, 6 pm

Island
54 Rue Van Eyck
1000 Brussels
Belgium

www.islandisland.be

The work of the artist Tim Onderbeke (Belgium, 1983) is based on negative space, the space between different objects. His photos, videos, sculptures and paintings are produced in a mechanical way. He lets materials speak for themselves. After this physical creation and through associative connotations, a mystical perception imposes itself on the viewer. The unification of these two processes represents the core of his oeuvre.

A Deborah Bowmann collaboration with Alix Brandenbourger, Tatiana Defraine, Théo Demans, Will Pollard and Thomas Schneider & Arthur Tramier.
Open Thursday to Saturday 3pm to 7pm

“According to my figures I’ve only had 2500 pieces of ass but I’ve watched 12500 horse races, and if I have any advice to anybody, it’s this: take up watercolor painting.” (Charles Bukowski, Notes of a Dirty Old Man, 1969)

Exhibition from January 14 to february 25

Ive Van Bostraeten – “La Polyclinique de la Culture” (January 2017)

“La Polyclinique de la Culture” was founded in 2004. The semantic wordplay of the name permits multidisciplinary activities in the organization of small-scale events in Brussels around visual culture (“vaiku sessions”), traditional celebrations (the Japanese “Sakura Matsuri”, “Udon-Gore”), ecology/architecture (“the turning house”, “La maison des trouvailles”), poetry (“the library of preciousness”), the human body (“body sessions”), food (“la polyculture de la cuisine”) and sound healing (“The Sonospheric alliance”). Since 2010, in the framework of “Natura docet”, workshops are offered in a picturesque natural reserve with the connection between man and nature, Gaiagraphy and herbalism as key components.

For the residency at SUPERDEALS in january the emphasis lies on energetic healing and artistic research on formats and methods that foster greater human connectedness.

feeelings is pleased to invite you to an evening of binge-watching season 3 of Liv Schulman’s tv show Control. Liv made a special edition of DVD’s that will be released this night too. We’re really excited and hope you’ll come along as seeing Liv Schulman’s brilliant and witty videos was a clear highlight in dark 2016.

Shot in different places and cities Control is a television series on art and writing in which a recurrent character, a sort of detective wanders between episodes attempting to establish new relations of meaning.The sole protagonist, played by different actors and actresses, is a detective taken straight from a detective novel. The commonplace of this cynical figure of the detective acts as a discourse-producing tool; considerably astray in a maze of stories whose meaning has been forever lost, he/she incarnates a person who has access to hidden facts, invisible systems, and the occult parts of the world, and imparts his/her paranoid conclusions in a disillusioned way. The antihero of Control who has lost his bearings in peripheral zones left to their own devices. In Control, the figure of the detective offers long-winded speeches, interchangeable ventriloquist-like ectoplasms of those dislocated monologues which borrow from the vocabularies of art, liberal economics, critical theory, and psychotherapy. Merging with one another, these distinct forms of discourse become absurd and crazy tools of a paranoid interpretation of the social world, based on the alienation of bodies, the devaluation of identities, and the complexities of desire for meaning.

‘Romantic love is saturated with commoditization. The socialistic premise behind “free love” crumbles when desiring competition gets in the way, and in the age of hook-up apps, the possibility of free sex represents the liberalization, not the liberation, of love.’ Alexa Karolinski and Ingo Niermann of the Army of Love engage these issues with an utopian proposal framed by conversations questioning the basic premises of love and justice.

Throughout the Brussels Art Week the video Army of Love (2016) will be screened at SUPERDEALS during prime time hours. The Army of Love is invited by Art Center CIAP in the frame of ‘Onder Ons’, the ongoing exhibition at CIAP curated by Isabel van Bos and Evelyn Simons.

Exposition du 11 novembre 2017 au 16 décembre 2017

Exposition ouverte du jeudi au samedi de 14h à 17h et sur rendez-vous

Informations : www.plagiarama.com

Elleke Frijters et Lisa Egio explorent des processus de travail similaires et des questions liées à la fonction des objets. Elleke Frijters développe des travaux de sculpture à partir d’objets essentiellement issus du mobilier urbain qu’elle décontextualise, donnant à leur fonction initiale un caractère abstrait. Elle entre ainsi en résonance avec le travail d’installation, de décontextualisation et de remise en jeu de la fonction des objets propre au travail de Lisa Egio.

Group-exhibition about time – with Gert Aertsen, Art & Language, Jeffrey Michael Austin, Jeremie Bennequin, Julien Berthier, Patrick Bernatchez, Mel Bochner, Joshua Citarella & Brad Troemel, Claude Closky, Hanne Darboven, Edith Dekyndt, Felicie d’Estienne d’Orves, David de Tscharner, Mark Geffriaud, David Guez, On Kawara, Joseph Kosuth, LAb[au], La Monte Young & Marian Zazeela, Peter Lemmens, Albertine Meunier, Nathalie Brevet_Hughes Rochette, Roman Opalka, Bertrand Planes, Sebastien Reuzé, Seth Siegelaub, Hirushi Sugimoto, Christophe Terlinden, Kris Van Dessel, … and others.

NICC cordially invites you to a new vitrine exhibition by internationally recognized Senegalese sculptor Seni Camara (b. 1945, lives and works in Bignona, Senegal). The opening will be accompanied by a Skype conversation between the artist and artist and interpreter Erwann Le Diberder, along with a documentary screening about Camara’s practice by multidisciplinary artist Fatou Kande Senghor. Camara is known for the terracotta sculptures she has made since the 1960s, which address the intersections of maternity, fertility, and myth. Her fantastical sculptures are rooted in divine revelation and local tradition, and often feature multi-headed animal figures carrying, caring for, or giving birth to their offspring. While these works allude to totems and other folkloric visual customs, they are wholly unique in content, form, and reference to both collective and personal histories. The exhibition at NICC will include a grouping of sculptural figures made in 2011. Camara’s works have been exhibited widely and have been included in the seminal Pompidou Centre global art exhibition Magiciens de la Terre, 100% Africa at the Guggenheim Bilbao, and more recently at the 2015 Venice Biennale All the World’s Futures, and Art/Afrique Le Nouvel Atelier at Fondation Louis Vuitton, among countless other exhibitions. The vitrine is 24/24 on view.

Elina Salminen & Maranne Walravens développent des travaux de peinture et de sculpture qui mettent en jeu des interventions infimes et minimales. Le travail de Maranne Walravens émerge d’un matériau brut trouvé tel que des affiches, des packagings, desquels elle efface tout message, rendant ainsi visible leur forme plastique. Elina Salminen travaille en tant que peintre, proposant des interventions à peine perceptibles. Elle amenuise les frontières entre le vide et le plein, donne à l’infime la possibilité d’être puissant, et concentre notre attention sur le plus faible signe.

Exhibition with Phillip Frankland & Garance Alves

from March 17 to April 28, 2018

Opening on Saturday March 17 from 3 to 7pm

Curator Yuna Mathieu-Chovet

Phillip Frankland creates large format abstract canvas made of paint and collage. Beyond their raw dimension, these works of art reveal a multitude of details, made of a wide range of classic and non noble materials, staged with sensitivity, and opening doors to the intimate relationship between the work of art and the artist.

Through an almost scientific protocol, Garance Alves creates transparent panels representing clothing deposited by the clients at the dry cleaner. Her work, at the borderline of figuration, is going far beyond the personal anecdote, leading to a wider work of art dealing with sociology. She achieves portraits between the lines, with intimacy and distance.

Both artist whose creation processes are making the counterpoint of each other – distinct, parallel, but complementary- questioning the intimate relationship between the artist and his own work and its own subject.

Film screening at 7.30 pm and 8.30 pm

Solo show

Perruche #2 presents the first solo exhibition by artist Julien Creuzet in Brussels. His multimedia installations use found objects, video, engraving and poetry toquestion the role of language for the individual and collective memory. Inspired by the philosophical reflections of Édouard Glissant, Julien Creuzet’s work focuses on the complex intersection of the history of Martinique and the events of European modernity. By blurring the border between technology and nature, the native and the foreign, high and low culture, he creates a spatial experience that is poetic and political at the same time.

Julien Creuzet (*1986) lives in Paris and holds a diploma from L’École des Beaux-Arts de Caen and a post-diploma from L’École des Beaux-Arts de Lyon. His workhas been recently shown in solo presentations at Bétonsalon and Fondation Ricard in Paris (2018), SKETCH Gallery in Bogota and Documentation Gallery in Chicago (2017); besides, in large international exhibitions such as the Bienniale of Lyon, the 11th Rencontres de Bamako (2017) and the Dakar Bienniale (2016).

an exhibition by Laurent Malherbe and Gerard Koek

In an exhibition titled “Parallel Placings” , the artists Laurent Malherbe and Gerard Koek will show their work as a double presentation. Specially for Greylight Projects, Brussels they have made two new installations in which they address concepts like production, location and dialogue. It can be experienced as a sculptural exploration of the art object, as place of gathering and confrontation. Parallelity is crucial in the work of both, as it is being mirrored and commented in various ways.

Phillip Frankland crée des toiles abstraites de grand format faites de peintures et de collages. Malgré leur apparence très brute, ces œuvres révèlent une multitude de détails, issus d’une grande variété de matériaux, classiques et non nobles, mis en scène avec délicatesse et ouvrant la voie vers la relation intime entre l’œuvre et l’artiste.

À travers un protocole quasiment scientifique, Garance Alves réalise et présente des panneaux transparents représentant les vêtements déposés par les clients d’un pressing. À la limite du figuratif, son travail dépasse l’anecdote intime vers une œuvre plus vaste en lien avec la sociologie. Elle réalise ainsi des portraits en creux, entre intimité et distance.

Deux artistes dont les processus de création font le contrepoint l’un de l’autre – distincts, parallèles, mais complémentaires – questionnant le rapport intime de l’artiste à son œuvre et à son sujet.

Curator Exquis is an exhibition put together by fifteen curators. The show has been conceived following the rule of the infamous surrealist game “Cadavre Exquis”, also known as Exquisite Corpse in English. In this version, drawing or writing has been replaced by the selection of artworks. The exhibition has been build one step at a time, without communication between the different curators except the artwork proposal they received from their successor, replacing thoughtful concepts by strikes of luck.

Artists: Lia Cecchin, Camila Farina, Florian Kiniques, Birgit Knoechl, Marieke Coppens, Ben Kaufmann, Gilles Ribero, Anne Lise Le Gac, Ricardo van Eyk, Marianne Mispelaëre, among others.

Curated by: Lucrezia Calabrò Visconti, Margaux Bonopera, Gatien Du Bois, Franz Thalmair, Lene ter Haar, Sophie Lapalu, Ben Kaufman, Charlotte Van Buylaere, Septembre Tiberghien, Pauline Hatzigeorgiou, Nienke Vijlbrief, Marie DuPasquier , Padraic E. Moore, Karin Schlageter, Charlotte Crevits.

I STILL BELIEVE IN MIRACLES

FR (EN below)

Une sélection de films d’artistes résidant à Bruxelles, réalisée par Laurent De Meyer et Gatien Du Bois

Les travaux qui ont été sélectionnés sont présentés selon un dispositif de projection cinématographique. La black box dans laquelle sont présentés ces films invite à une expérience qui entraine le spectateur dans un espace ou la densité sensorielle et intellectuelle est modifiée et où se révèlent des fragments de vérité.

Si certaines des œuvres sont conformes à un “format cinéma” avec un scénario construit qui convoque une narrativité forte, d’autres relèvent d’un désir de plasticité qui s’intéressent au sort des images. Toutefois, les films sélectionnés ont tous pour but d’ouvrir des brèches et faire trembler les apparences.

La fascination des images filmiques met le spectateur au défi d’une non-mise à distance de ce qu’il ou elle voit. Or, ce qui est donné à voir nous trouble; notre expérience de la vie, les situations que nous expérimentons, nos pensées et notre mémoire se confrontent à celles des artistes. Une tension palpable est contenue dans chacune des œuvres qui composent cette sélection. “I still believe in miracles” questionne notre rapport à la nature et à l’activité humaine. Une activité qui est interrogée au prisme de la technologie et des procédures que nous mettons en œuvre pour contrôler notre environnement.

A selection of films by artists living in Brussels, curated by Laurent De Meyer and Gatien Du Bois

The selected art works are presented according to a cinematographic projection device. The black box in which these films are screened invites to an experience that takes the viewer into a space where the sensory and intellectual density is modified and where fragments of truth are revealed.

While some of those works conform to a “cinema format” with a constructed scenario that calls for a strong narrative, others are based on a desire for plasticity lying in an interest for the fate of images. However, all the selected films aim to open gaps and to shiver appearances.

The fascination for filmic images challenges the viewer with a closeness to what he or she sees. Now, what is given to see disturbs us; our experience of life, the situations we experience, our thoughts and our memory are confronted with those of the artists. A palpable tension is contained in each of the works that are part of this selection. “I still believe in miracles” questions our relationship to nature and human activity. An activity that is investigated through the lens of technology and the procedures we implement to control our environment.

With: Léa Belooussovitch, Natalia de Mello, Ariane Loze, Armand Morin and Stéphanie Roland

ALL PLACES ARE TEMPORARY PALACES

FR (EN below)

“Tous les lieux sont des palais temporaires”. Derrière ce titre, il y a l’idée que, même dans les espaces que nous habitons de manière passagère (comme une chambre d’hôtel), nous avons tendance à insérer dans notre cadre de vie des souvenirs de moments personnels, à adapter notre comportement aux contraintes architecturales et sociales, à adopter un certain regard vers celui-ci. Cette attitude transforme un espace informel en un lieu habité, un palais personnel.

Le point de départ de cette exposition est le penthouse de l’hôtel qui porte actuellement le nom de “NH Brussels Bloom”. Dominant le Botanique et son jardin, répondant de manière espiègle aux immeubles de bureau avoisinant, le penthouse est un lieu étrange. A la fois dans l’hôtel et en dehors, avec de multiples ouvertures sur la ville qui se déploie devant ses fenêtres et pourtant ailleurs, comme un nid ou un palais posé sur le somment d’une colline. Ce lieu particulier est chargé d’histoires – qu’elles soient intimes ou frayent avec celle avec un grand “H”. Dans sa fonction initiale le penthouse aura connu le prestige, servant de pied-à-terre à des personnalités hors du commun. Le terme “palais” du titre de cette exposition englobe ici des idées de confort, de luxe, de grandeur et de pouvoir. Mais le temps a passé et tout est temporaire. Le lieu a vécu, il vit encore.

Si certaines traces de sa grandeur passée demeurent, le penthouse sert maintenant d’espace dédié à la création contemporaine. Ainsi, “All places are temporary palaces” est un chapitre dans la nouvelle vie de ce lieu. Rassemblant des artistes plasticiens vivant en Belgique, l’exposition imagine et propose différents fragments de vies. Elle invite ses visiteurs à se saisir du lieu, à l’habiter avec de nouveaux souvenirs que les œuvres exposées leur soufflent. Plus qu’une simple proposition d’accrochage, il s’agit d’une déambulation au fil des pièces où les perceptions in situ font émergence, de vécu font apparition. L’espace du penthouse devient par là – pour un temps – le territoire de nouveaux échanges et le réceptacle de nouveaux souvenirs personnels.

“All places are temporary palaces”. Behind this title, there is the idea that, even in spaces we inhabit in a transient way (like a hotel room), we tend to insert into our living environment memories of personal moments, to adapt our behaviour to the architectural and social constraints, to take a specific look towards it. This attitude transforms an informal space into an inhabited one, a personal palace.

The starting point for this exhibition is the penthouse of the hotel currently known as the “NH Brussels Bloom”. Overlooking the Botanique and its garden, responding in a mischievous way to the neighbouring office buildings, the penthouse is a strange place. Both inside the hotel and outside, with multiple openings on the city which unfolds in front of its windows and yet elsewhere, like a nest or a palace on the top of a hill. This particular place is full of stories – whether intimate or spawns with history. In its original function the penthouse has had a prestigious status, serving as a pied-à-terre to famous people. The term “palace” from the title of this exhibition encompasses ideas of comfort, luxury, grandeur and power. But time has passed and everything is temporary. The place has lived, it still lives.

While some traces of its past glory remain, the penthouse now serves as a space dedicated to contemporary creation. Therefore, “All places are temporary palaces” is a chapter in the new life of this space. Bringing together visual artists living in Belgium, the exhibition imagines and proposes different fragments of life. It invites its visitors to seize the place, to inhabit in it with new memories that the exhibited works are whispering to them. More than just a hanging of art works, it is a stroll through the rooms where in situ perceptions emergence, where experiences appear. The space of the penthouse becomes then – for a while – the territory of new exchanges and the receptacle of new personal memories.

Perruche #2 presents the first solo exhibition by artist Julien Creuzet in Brussels. His multimedia installations use found objects, video, engraving and poetry toquestion the role of language for the individual and collective memory. Inspired by the philosophical reflections of Édouard Glissant, Julien Creuzet’s work focuses on the complex intersection of the history of Martinique and the events of European modernity. By blurring the border between technology and nature, the native and the foreign, high and low culture, he creates a spatial experience that is poetic and political at the same time.

Julien Creuzet (*1986) lives in Paris and holds a diploma from L’École des Beaux-Arts de Caen and a post-diploma from L’École des Beaux-Arts de Lyon. His workhas been recently shown in solo presentations at Bétonsalon and Fondation Ricard in Paris (2018), SKETCH Gallery in Bogota and Documentation Gallery in Chicago (2017); besides, in large international exhibitions such as the Bienniale of Lyon, the 11th Rencontres de Bamako (2017) and the Dakar Bienniale (2016).

The Weight of the Ground is the first solo show of the French artist Naïmé Perrette in Brussels and the inaugural exhibition of Cust-link’s new program. Naïmé Perrette is a multimedia artist mixing video art, photography and sculptural installations. Inspired by artificial ecosystems, natural phenomena, territorial representations and the interferences between them, she draws relationships between environmental politics and their cultural contexts. For her exhibition at Cunst-link, Naïmé Perrette will show new pieces, some of them made from recycled elements of previous works, aiming to create from the existing, to sculpt and construct from what is already made.This evolving creative research shows her interest in movement and shifting between times and spaces, and representation becoming a new reality.

The Weight of the Ground refers to themes that appear in many of the artist’s works. The ground acts as an existential origin of nature and landscapes; observing its weight is an attempt to measure and to critically investigate its limits.

Through a process of deconstruction, the weight disappears and loses its consistency, the transparency of over-lit surfaces and digital screens become the founding elements of the artist’s selective cartography and landscapes.

Interested in cultural and social urbanist anomalies which often engage moral discrepancy, Naïmé Perrette’s ongoing research focuses on artificial islands as a metaphor of the human desire to project new rules and control growth. One of her ongoing projects focuses on the Marker Wadden: an island in the Markermeer Sea near Amsterdam, entirely designed by man’s hand to respond to ecological issues. Planned as a “new wilderness”, its creators are deciding its type of nature, to host the endangered birds that are the most representative of the Netherlands.

Perrette questions our relationship to the environment, and pictures the to-be-inhabited spaces to see what they reveal about us. Mixing different perspectives, she highlights almost infinite layers ofrepresentation. Her observation of the relationship between humans and our environment offers a way to question people’s vision of nature, its figurative weight.

Naïmé Perrette (1989, France) has completed a Master in Film Animation at ENSAD (Paris) and was resident at Rijksakademie in Amsterdam in 2014-2015. She has been awarded grants by Werkbijdrage Jong Talent, Mondriaan Fonds, and Kara 2017 (Kooshk, Tehran). Her films and installations has been shown in various galleries, museums and fairs, including the Museum of Modern Art (Rio), Eye (Amserdam), Art Rotterdam, STUK (Leuven), Mohsen Gallery (Tehran), Slate Projects (London), La Gaîté Lyrique (Paris), HKW (Berlin), Merdar Art Centre (Cairo).

L’Escaut Architectures & Bn PROJECTS are very pleased to invite you to the opening of Just for a drop, an exhibition by Alberto Scodro, specially conceived for the space of L’Escaut.

Vitalist, often organic, aiming at an ecological aesthetic and an economy of the means and materials of production, circular and involutionary, confining to self-sufficiency, the work of Alberto Scodro aspires to transcend and even generate its own creative matter.
It is also a work that tells about flow and circulation, transformation and mutation. Oscillating between hubris and modesty, it unfolds by engaging a dialectic between the different tensions it generates or allows us to see: between the organic and the mineral, the industrial and the artifact, the vertical and the horizontal, control and surrender…
All these elements are found in the installation specifically designed for the site of L’Escaut Architectures, cooperative of architects founded by Olivier Bastin in 1989.

Scodro’s aesthetic universe finds its root in his family origins and the environment where he grew up and keeps developing his work today: Nove, a village of this prosperous Veneto, a few kilometers away from Bassano del Grappa, a village with a rich agrarian past, with a historical tradition of ceramics industries and workshops. Alberto Scodro draws his inspiration from it, revitalizing himself while working in a workshop he has entirely designed, organized around the crucible of a ceramic kiln.
It is this oven that cooks, transforms and transmutes in a quasi-demiurgical way the objects that Scodro melts according to his own formula, and where the mineral mixes with the organic and the industrial.

Alberto Scodro responded to L’Escaut’s invitation to conceive a work for their site with a radical proposal: to completely divert the circuit from the circulation of central heating, transforming the building – the time of an exhibition – similarly to a gigantic architectural coffee machine acting both, metaphorically and efficiently, on a series of pre-baked plates made out of melted sand and mineral. This proposal was made, intuition or premonitory coincidence, before learning about that at the time L’Escaut had been transformed into a warehouse to store coffee…
His intervention brings the entire building into a vertical tension, apprehending it as a living organism from which it would divert the vital fluid and redirect it towards a new production, generating a new experience.
Contrasting with the horizontality of the ground floor display, this vertical hijacking transforming the former hoist of the warehouse into a “sculptural shower” finds an acoustic counterpoint in the air vent located at the back of the building which Scodro uses as a vector for broadcasting recordings made on site, referring to the circulation of the users of the site.
On the first floor, the forest of radiators translated in order to prepare for the drop in percolation responds to the upward momentum suggested by the ginkgos bilobas, the trees that Scodro cultivates in his country, and which have been carefully potted in patched terracotta vases previously used to melt the sculptures displayed on the ground floor.
One of these ginkgos, prehistoric tree also known for its qualities of vasodilator/fluidifier of blood circulation, is planted in the middle of the courtyard and will remain at L’Escaut where it will quietly pursue its growth.
A final note about these sculptural fusions which resort to a variety of raw materials, from more or less recognizable mundane objects or waste from our industrial societies to semi-precious ores, to which Scodro gives a new life and new radiance.
Composites, both organic and industrial in their constituents, these fusions crystallize this dialectic aspiration which runs through the work of Scodro and structures his commitment both on an artistic and socio-political level: this belief in the possibility to assimilate, metabolize, literally and figuratively, the rejection and the precious, the rare and the innocuous, the mineral and the organic, in order to make it, beyond the intriguing aesthetic forms revealed by his sculptures, the promise of a possible future, an a
llegory of a planet hopefully able to reinvent itself.

Bn PROJECTS & Maison Grégoire are very pleased to invite you to the opening of
On a bien accroché, an exhibition specially conceived for the space of Maison Grégoire and revolving around the confrontation of the works of Marc Buchy and Shuzo Azuchi Gulliver.

The title of the project plays in French with the ambiguity with the expression : In an antinomic fashion to begin with, for « accrocher » means in French to hang (a picture) and there will hardly be anything hung on the walls for this project, which will mostly present immaterial protocol-based body of work.
But the expression also means in French on a metaphoric level, « we got along well », thus implying the idea of potential and spontaneous affinities existing between these two artists, at first sight very different.
One of the stakes of the project was indeed to confront these two artists from two different generations and continents, but whose bodies of work articulate around conceptual and often immaterial protocols, incarnated./activated in their respective bodies and minds.

The work of Shuzo Azuchi a.k.a. Gulliver, one of the major exponents of Japanese Fluxus, is mainly articulated around a mediated strategy of expansion and spreading of his vital energy, DNA and body material in the space he shares with the beholder.
Specifically and radically « generous », but also situating itself between semi-liturgical rites of transmission, an attitude of creative hubris, or an attempt at infiltrating or conquering spaces of mediated immortality, the physical and mental beings of Gulliver often stand in the limelight of his installations, performances, drawings, and form literally the first material – analyzed, translated, or even dismembered – of his body of work.

For this project, we will activate, in a specific and performative way, one of the most emblematic and seminal works in his production, the « body Project », a protocol whereby Gulliver organizes in a carefully-planned contractual fashion the gift and transmission of his body, dismembered into 80 parts.
Besides recent works specially created for the show, we will also activate in a novel way, his « Weight project » (consisting of the installation of a sculptural element of a weight corresponding to that of the artist), just as we will try and spread the transcription of his DNA in an integrated way throughout the domestic space of Maison Grégoire.

On his side, the work of the Brussels-based young French artist Marc Buchy, which often operates in stealth-like mode, acts as a sort of spanner in the works, disrupting the perfectly oiled mechanics of the contexts where he intervenes.
Discrete, infra-visible and anti-spectacular, his works may at first sight seem far from those of Shuzo Azuchi.
Nevertheless, on closer inspection, there are several points of convergence between the two: Questioning the very concepts of transmission and circulation (whether it be of knowledge, values, or of what specifically makes an artwork), their effectiveness and relevancy or, a contrario, their uselessness, Buchy’s works only find their implementation in relation with the body or the mind which imagined them, that is Marc’s.

A work such as « Naevius », whereby Marc Buchy had a very naturalistic naevius tattooed on his back, which he offers for sale, thus making its potential buyer the owner of a drawn part of his body, offers a good significant counterpoint to to Azuchi’s Body project. In this case though, the collector will only be able to contemplate and or exhibit his artwork by inviting Marc Buchy, and as long as the artist is alive of course.
To illustrate a similar counterpoint, we could compare Shuzo Azuchi « Gift projects » whereby he commits himself – as he will do for « On a bien accroché » – , to gift to the willing visitors a given Japanese phoneme (in the present case, « yo »), whenever he will pronounce it from now on, with Buchy’s « Instructions » protocol.
In this project, Buchy sells to a collector the promise never to take astronomy courses or dance lessons for the rest of his life.
The question of the acquisition or, conversely, of the hindrance of knowledge, that of the relevancy or utility of cognitive commitments, are central in Buchy’s practice: Over the past years he has been pursuing an attempt at drawing freehand or, rather, in a free-arm fashion, a perfect circle.
For « On a bien accroché », he is initiating a protocol where he will invite the curator of the show, or even the visitors, to try and use their « wrong » hand for different compositional or writing exercises.
A performance that will not be announced and will probably remain unnoticed during the opening will be further activated in stealth mode by two young artists who have spent a significant amount of time during the preparation of the show with Buchy: the idea was to invite them to observe him, so as to reproduce, in an integrated way, his body language and expressions.

Besides these individual projects, which operate towards each other as echoes in affinity or dissonance, « On a bien accroché » will also promote and activate a strategy of interpenetration and cross-pollination of Shuzo azuchi’s and Marc Buchy’s respective practices and singular projects, whether it be in the physical space or the communication of the exhibition.

For this exhibition Dóra Benyó and Mária-Krisztina Nagy are investigating the perpetual notion of chance and the wide range of consequential possibilities. The title When Bread Falls on the Buttered Side evokes the external and forceful factors that lead to uncontrollable situations. Therefore, the two artists are exploring human powerlessness and their various capacity of adaptation to the unforeseeable.

⎐ About the Film ⎐

AUTARCIE TIGER’S II, Video HD, 38 min, 2014

Six days per week, the eight fishermen of the Tiger’s II work day and night at sea in the north of France. We discover the patterns of their group dynamics as we watch how they respond to the intense rhythm of the work, the distance from women and the integration of new recruits. This film goes into a male trio’s intimacy, portraying the youth embarked on the boat. Autarcie Tiger’s II depicts how they establish their sense of empowerment in their isolated context.

⎐⎐⎐⎐

⎐ About the Talk ⎐

From planners of artificial islands to fishermen at sea, from local and endemic contexts to multi-connected and global realities.
The discussion will embrace these contrasts in order to offer a reflection on the notion of distance in relations to our environment and milieu.

Une proposition curatoriale de Roman Moriceau

Avec le soutien de la galerie Archiraar.com

www.Anne-Charlotte Finel.com

www.Ella Littwitz.com

www.Jean-Baptiste Bouvet.org

www.Roman Moriceau.com

Lors de l’édition 2017 de Poppositions, mon attention avait été retenue par une fascinante pièce sonore de Roman Moriceau : des chants d’oiseaux…de simples chants d’oiseaux qui plongeaient la foire dans une atmosphère de détente, de bien être et de zenitude absolue, comme proposée par un guru de la psychologie positive vous vendant une reconnexion numérique avec la nature…

J’ai donc demandé à Alexis et Octave, fondateurs de la galerie Archiraar, ce que signifiait cette pièce. La réponse fut aussi violente que les chants étaient séduisants : « Ce sont des chants d’espèces d’oiseaux disparues de la planète ».

Quand j’ai fondé le V2Vingt, j’avais déjà cette oeuvre en tête et le désir de l’isoler dans cet espace personnel s’est rapidement fait sentir.

J’ai dès lors contacté Archiraar qui m’a présenté l’artiste, qui a accepté ma proposition.

L’exposition commence donc avec une carte blanche jouée par Roman en invitant trois autres créateurs à se joindre à lui : Anne-Charlotte Finel, Jean-Baptiste Bouvet et Ella Littwitz.

Et voilà comment je perçois les affinités qui naissent de la rencontre de ces quatre personnalités distinctes :

Anne-Charlotte Finel capte des moments troubles ou l’environnement semble incertain, voire surréel. L’interrogation s’arrête sur l’outil même de la perception dont dispose notre corps, en fonction du moment et de l’environnement perçu. Plus concrètement, les images et vidéos d’Anne-Charlotte sont prises au lever d’un jour, à la périphérie d’une ville. Elle sont diluées par le grain de la prise de vue à une heure ou la lumière ne permet pas à l’objectif (ni à l’oeil) d’être optimal.

Jean-Baptiste Bouvet Travaille sur l’environnement de l’espace d’exposition. Comme Finel, il se situe à la frontière de quelque-chose : à la frontière du monochrome qui n’en est pas tout à fait un, à la frontière d’une porte qui hésite entre l’imitation, l’artefact ou la peinture qui s’affirme pour elle-même. Comme Finel et Moriceau, il semble davantage attaché à la perception qu’à la symbolique. Il travaille l’information à son degré minimal.

Ella Littwitz est, quant à elle, bien plus attachée à la symbolique et son travail traite l’information comme le symptôme d’une réalité identitaire à comprendre. Artiste israélienne, Littwiz questionne la présence politique, économique, géographique et géologique d’une frontière autant que sa réalité psychologique. Les matériaux minutieusement choisis renvoient à des réalités historiques qui parlent des fondements d’un monde éternellement en construction.

Roman Moriceau développe un travail a priori séduisant que je qualifierais aussi de perceptuel. Mais la quasi totalité de ses oeuvres repose sur une contradiction entre la matière et l’image. La surface est souvent lisse, attrayante et parfois proche du glamour. Rien ne peut salir l’idée qu’on s’en fait tant qu’on se tient à l’abri de l’information : seule l’ignorance nous sauve. Toute personne demandant à connaître le processus de création s’expose à voir ses illusions s’effondrer. Et c’est peut-être tout le fond de la démarche…

L’ensemble est un équilibre entre la mélancolie et le mystère, ou entre le doute et la révolte. On est forcément à la frontière entre des choses qui refusent de se laisser définir. On est ‘entre’…et on va y rester.

Et sur rendez-vous.

‘The Hannah Arendt Working Group is dedicated to reading the texts of Arendt out loud around a table at public locations across Europe and the United States. Arendt, one of the titans of 20th century thinking, created a body of work that is simultaneously poetic, philosophical, and prophetic. The text for the April Brussels group will focus on culture and politics from the newly released Thinking Without a Bannister. The Working Group is led by Fred Dewey, April artist in residence at SUPERDEALS and author of The School of Public Life (Doormats 2015, 2nd printing 2017). In summer ’17, Dewey led a version of the Working Group, “The Portable Polis,” across Berlin, sponsored by ZK/U. The Brussels gathering meets Sundays in April at 1 pm, at SUPERDEALS. Free text copies will be provided and all are welcome. No advance reading or prior experience with Arendt are necessary.’

Performance Night

(…)
Papy lève son panneau STOP.

C’est toujours le problème de la séduction, ça me flatte les dessous de bras. Il faut l’accepter, en être conscient, ramener la peinture à ce qu’elle est. Lorsque je suis trop séduit, faut que je gratte, racle, ponce. Tout ce qui me drague, je m’empêche de l’aimer.

Papy donne le feu vert. Le peintre continue sa marche en direction du travail. S’arrête dans un café juste à coté de son bureau. Les tables sont vides. Il neige. Personne ne s’arrête. Le barman essuie des verres à eau. Il s’assoit au comptoir et commande une formule café-croissant.

Je ne veux plus choisir, ne plus avoir à choisir. Mettre en dehors le choix de la composition — il n’y en a plus c’est plein cadre. Mettre en dehors le choix du format — j’ai trouvé le bon. Réduire les couleurs — pourquoi pas. Se sacrifier à un geste comme si tout était vain. On a le sentiment d’une trace prise dans un support, des traces de raclage comme si le papier avait été plié comme un accordéon, et sous la trace il y aurait presque un paysage…une digue…une succession d’actions qu’on pourrait presque se figurer. Je me suis censuré de la figure et voilà qu’elle revient en courant, comme s’il en sortait nécessairement quelque chose…oui…ça figurerait presque quelque chose.

C5 is pleased to announce for its second edition a one-on-one installation

with works by

LÉO FOURDRINIER – JANA PAPENBROOCK

Galerie Horta . 116 rue Marché aux Herbes 1000 Brussels

From June 4th to 26th, Adrian Schindler will be in residence at Superdeals with the collection of photographs taken by his great-grandfather during World War II, which includes more than three hundred snapshots. He has studied these images for many years and has often written about them, but he has written little about his relationship with them and even less about how others look at them. During these three weeks, he will receive at the gallery on an individual basis those who would like to consult these photographs and, if they wish, discuss them with him. These meetings will voluntarily not be documented, but will feed in a diffuse way a writing work of which a first draft will be presented at the end of the residency. This project consists both in exposing a family archive to the interpretations, desires and questions of others, in setting up a space of trust where contradictory feelings in response to this kind of historical documents can coexist, and in thinking about the possibility of writing in first person while carrying a multitude of voices. It is the first time that this collection will be presented in its entirety.

Are movements speechless and silences static? Is improvisation inevitably ephemeral or could a choreography be transcripted on the future tense? This performative exhibition states that each encounter, either happening in a public open space or in the transitional space of the art room — two areas in constant conversation, could be encoded and recorded simultaneously on a score using its own linguistic system. Translatability experiments the subtle free-space between protocol and coincidence and allows interpretation to become the creative act itself.

Grande Surface invite Antoine Carbonne, pour l’exposition “Redouté”.

http://antoine-carbonne.com/

PJ. Redouté a été capable de traverser, sans grand problème, les crises politiques successives, et de survivre aux différents régimes politiques. Il a collaboré avec les plus grands botanistes de son temps et a participé à près d’une cinquantaine d’ouvrages comme illustrateur et éditeur.

Dans cette exposition, Antoine Carbonne a utilisé des éléments Végétaux (fleurs, branches etc.) pour transformer des portraits  en paysages.

Dans ce but il s’est appuyé sur des livres illustrés de plantes, et parmi eux, un livre d’illustrations de Pierre Joseph Redouté.

Pj Redouté était un dessinateur et illustrateur Wallon proche du pouvoir et de la cour de France, notamment grâce à sa relation avec les femmes.

Bien que ses dessins puissent sembler criards, il utilisait une technique si précise que ses images se rapprochent des visuels 3D très contemporains.

C’est ce qui en a fait une base très précieuse pour ce dernier ensemble de peintures.

‘# 2953c1 When it is not Spontaneous’, hosted by @Sagacity Brussels, is the third collaborative installation by Turkish artist Mustafa Boğa and Icelandic artist Kolbrún Inga Söring. This time, digging further into their experience of mental and physical borders and questioning their existence within these concepts. They emphasise a disapproval of discriminatory attitudes, stating that their expression is a carefully constructed ideology that raises questions fuelled by disagreement with the current socio-political climate.

The installation exists within an ongoing project ‘The Fourth Culture – a Micro Nation’ which is a container for a critical view on society, where the duo practices intense critical self-reflection, using their opposite experiences, challenging viewers perceptions and asking them to perform a mental and physical reading of the information presented to them. This initiates a dialogue which plants a seed that then can continue growing further in the mind of another.

Both Boğa and Söring present themselves in the space, but their roles are paradoxical. While Boğa is hidden, Söring is exposed. Deconstructing their own learnt behaviour, they express borderless attitudes through a special experience which becomes both intrusive to and influenced by the public’s presence. Their combined cultural experiences give them the possibility of examining cultural identities from a broad understanding of different perceptions.

Hugo Mega (Portugal) is a dancer and performer based in Brussels.
He will transform Cunst-link in an animated space for reflexion and experimentation, combining a site-specific installation, video and performance.
During these days the space will also be turned into a temporary greenhouse which will host different plants all from the family of epiphytes.
The idea of this residency and performative installation comes from a recent trip of Hugo Mega in Thailand where he witnessed the harmony and perfect sustainability of certain types of plants, the epiphytes. These organisms grow on the surface of other plants and derive their moisture and nutrients from the air, rain, or from debris accumulated around it.
Epiphytes, contrary to parasitical organism don’t affect the status of their host, but they might even take part in its nutrient cycles, adding nutrients components.
These types of organism became the starting point of a reflexion on the duality of parasitic and symbiotic lifestyle, consequently broaden to human behaviour toward nature and our critical and controversial role in ecology.
All these reflexions will be summarized into a two hours performance where Hugo Mega will embody the quality of this specific plants in harmony and symbiosis with the space.The performance will take place every evening during the three final open days of the residency.

Residency : 18 – 28th June
Performances : 28th – 1st July / 8 to 10 pm.

Hugo Mega is a Portuguese artist and yoga instructor living in Brussels. From an early age, Hugo has been working and exploring his body´s physical capacities through dance and circus. After his circus studies at Chapitô in Lisbon, he moved to Belgium to graduate in 2012 from ESAC (High School of Circus Arts) where he specialized in Aerial Silks.

He has worked for other choreographers, created his own work and researched how a somatic movement approach relates to circus and dance. In 2014, he started studying dream therapy through imagery and visualisation work, which is highly nourishing and inspires his artistic work. Hugo correlates his work with esoteric and spiritual practices to find new ways to experience and create new material, expanding his consciousness both in his artistic and personal life.

Island is pleased to invite you to Ficticious Legacies
presenting Antonia Brown, Justine Court, Johanna Grivel, Naomi Quashie & Maurine Rolland
September 6th – 30th, 2018
Opening: Wednesday, September 5th, 6pm
Performance: Naomi Quashie, How to transform ourselves, 7.30pm

Ficticious Legacies is a project born of a meeting of diverse feminine subjectivities. How to approach the characteristic difference of these subjectivities, while avoiding the pitfalls of a recurrent paternalism and cultural ethnocentrism ? Is it even possible ? To do this, the exhibition becomes a fictional body fed by narratives that intersect and allow to build a fictional landscape while affirming the content of these five personalities, enriched by their respective Kin.

Ficticious Legacies was initiated in the frame of the seminar ‘Après l’école’ of La Cambre coordinated by Céline Gillain.

in collaboration with La Cambre arts visuels

Alix Nicolas’ practice delves into one pivotal material: paper. Questioning paper as a material in itself, more than a mere support, she manages to transform it into sculptural forms and environmental elements. For the occasion she will adapt her work enveloping not only the space but also human body, collaborating with performers from the Artist Commons and together exploring the possible relationship between this material, body and movements.

Alix Nicolas studied drawing at ENSAV La Cambre and graduated in 2016. Alix Nicolas at first used paper as a medium, as a surface on which, by the application of other lines and colors, and the using of various media (painting, drawing…) an artwork will emerge. She investigated paper as a material and a possible way of expression in itself.
She took part in several collective exhibitions in Brussels with the collectif La Friche, for the Mediatine Price, in Gallery Nadine Feront, Maison du Peuple, and Micro

Lucie Lanzini creates sculptures made of molded parts of glass and resin. She molds fragments of architectural and decorative elements. According to an inversion principle, the new created object is a print of the missing original.

Margré Steensma works from everyday objects. She changes their material, diverting them from their original function. She uses these autonomous shapes to create new abstract spaces, that everybody is invited to invest.

Lucie Lanzini and Margré Steensma are both working on the object from its material, transforming the linked semantic corpus, allowing distance. Those artists, while reshaping the objects and their meaning, participate to a reappropriation of the reality.

Lucie Lanzini crée des sculptures composées d’éléments moulés, de verre et de résine. Elle moule des fragments d’éléments architecturaux et décoratifs. Selon un principe d’inversion, Le nouvel objet créé est donc une empreinte de l’original absent.

Margré Steensma travaille à partir d’objets issus du quotidien. Elle en change les matériaux et les détourne de leur fonction originale. Elle utilise ces formes autonomes pour créer de nouveaux espaces abstraits, que chacun est invité à investir.

Lucie Lanzini et Margré Steensma sont des artistes qui travaillent toutes deux l’objet à partir de la matière, transformant le corpus sémantique qui lui est lié, permettant une mise à distance. Ces deux artistes, en remodelant les objets et leur sens, participent à une réappropriation de la réalité.

I am not sorry.
Solo exhibition by Adèle Gratacos, curated by Gatien Du Bois

What do we absorb and what do we keep at distance? I am not sorry. is an attempt to create a personal fortress but without walls, without defense. Through an installation encompassing photographs, texts and videos the French artist (born in 1993) is reaching for the stunning angle.

During the exhibition time, new elements will continuously be added by the artist while others will be removed, creating an ever evolving installation. I am not sorry. is a stretching not only time but also space since the exhibition will overflow to the adjacent street.

Il se concentre et comence abord a ecrire une phrase. Ul la lit a haute voix mais se rend conte qie le resultat final est plus reconfortnt que terrifiant. Il la relie avec un thin moin avenent mais la conclusion ne change pas. La chance du debutant n’est pas de son cote,il doit persévère. Il sait qu’il doit continuer de snentrainer. Il de felicite neanmoins de se discretio’ tout en revenant sur son phras. Il faut qu’il devienne plus inquietant, que la personne ne prenne pas le tempad de s’habillet avant de snenfuit’r. Le probleme, cnest qu’il ne sait pas comment opperer. Il pense alors a ce qui lui fait peur et se demande si sa cranite peux etre universelle. Apres quelques minutes de reflexions, il se demande surrout si ol a envie de menaxer les gend. Ul aurait pu le faire pe’dant la guerre mais son visage tombanr lui confirzm que l’instabt est passe. Peureusement qu’il est seul dans la peice xar il commence a reellement perdee confiance. Il se demande ce qu’il fait, pourquoi ik est la ? Ay fur et mesur qu’il se decontenance, la phrase déposé sur le miroir s’efface. Elle etais lucise et ttendre elle lui ressemnlais. Il depose alors ses mains sur l’evier et se concentee, pour cette fois ci ne pas craquer. Ol se dit qunil doit retrouver ses esprits. Que ce nnest plus le moment de flancher. Il releve la tete mais le trouve plue son viqage. Il se frote les yeux pensant qu’il est en train d’haluciner mais toujours pas de reflets. Il compeebd alors quil n’a plus le choix, il va devoir s’allonger dans la boue une derniere fois. Revivre l’attente, la fin et lnattaque afin de construire une phrade digne du genre.

Habitée par cette omniprésente question du langage comme espace codifié, caché (visible-invisible, derrière-devant…), elle décode les sons et les formes en une multitude de calculs qui lui permettent de chiffrer ces codes que le langage recouvre.

Elle redessine un espace fait de signes, de formes composées qui se répondent comme des miroirs. Comme une ballade circulaire, une forme primitive parfaite, faite d’une infinité de points qui se positionnent autour d’un centre dont ils sont équidistants.

« La vibration de l’onde qui, par son mouvement, crée une infinité de cercles à partir du même point me fascine en tant qu’image de représentation de mon être dans l’univers. Cette vibration dans un espace vide génère pour moi ces multiples signes liés au langage, aux sons abstraits qu’ils provoquent. Elle évoque pour moi la question de la fréquence temporelle en amenant au processus vibratoire la question du rythme, comme une musique qui reliera la Ville à l’Ensemble. »

⎐ Exhibition ⎐
Floida Skraqi, born in Albania, studied visual arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. She works through different practices such as performance, video and photography and her research is mainly anchored within social and cultural issues.
The works presented at Cunst-link investigate the boundaries and possibilities of different cultural backgrounds, and how our identity is structured in a globalized society.
“I Cheated On You” ultimately becomes a moment of reflection on the role of our cultural background within our identity; a narration of a breaking-up or a reconciliation with our origins and childhood.

⎐ Speakers ⎐
Floida Skraqi (1989, Albania) is a Milan and Brussels based artist.
She attended her Master Degree in Visual Arts in the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera, Milan. Starting from 2007 she investigates the movement across several levels, around notions of practicality,
representations and interventions. She performed in different art spaces in Brussels, Milan, Turin, Stockholm, Sofia, Tirana, among others. She is interested in the unconscious language of mutation given by time. This status attracted her to work with children, people with Alzheimer’s disease and mental disorders. Together with Rossana Bossini she is co-founder and co-director of the artistic collective Lie-Fi Palimpsest.

www.liefipalimpsest.com

Alice Ciresola (1990) is an independent curator of performance and community art projects. In particular, her research focuses on strategies of heritage re-interpretation through artistic interventions. Since 2016 she works in collaboration with artist Simone Basani, developing participatory projects, collective performances, and educational devices for communities and cultural institutions. She currently lives and works in Brussels.

Emma Pollet and Anita De Laforêt give the observation process an essential role within their respective practices. They work on the notions of nature and landscape related to time and space. They explore these notions through a certain simplicity of means.

Emma Pollet observe the void around the objects, allowing them to exist. For a text, it is the white spaces between the letters. For an object, the emptiness of the container that is waiting to be filled. She is interested in nature and landscape as elusive elements, as they are in perpetual motion and depending on the point of view you look at them.

Anita De Laforêt questions the place of human being among the nature, she observes the interaction of the individual and its environment. She works from natural materials, setting up a framework and letting time and material act. The artist places herself as spectator before reintroducing her into the work as a performance artist.

Through their works, these two artists share a sensitive experience with the public. An experience both common and singular, fleeting and always in transition, highlighting the impossibility to reproduce the observation of a world in ongoing motion and the spontaneous richness of the intimate experience.

Emma Pollet et Anita De Laforêt donnent au processus d’observation une place importante au sein de leurs pratiques respectives. Elles travaillent à partir de notions telles que la nature et le paysage, qu’elles relient à celles du temps et de l’espace et qu’elles explorent à travers une certaine simplicité de moyens.

Emma Pollet observe le vide qui entoure les objets, qui leur permet d’exister. Dans le cas d’un texte, ce seraient les espaces blancs qui séparent les lettres, dans le cas d’un objet, le vide du récipient qui attend d’être rempli. Elle s’intéresse à la nature et au paysage en tant qu’éléments insaisissables car en perpétuel mouvement et dépendant du point de vue depuis lequel on les observe.

Anita De Laforêt questionne la place de l’être humain au sein de la nature, elle observe l’interaction de l’individu avec son environnement. Elle travaille à partir de matériaux naturels, met en place des dispositifs et laisse le temps et la matière agir. L’artiste se place ainsi elle-même comme spectatrice avant de se réintroduire dans l’oeuvre en tant que performeuse.

À travers leurs pièces, ces deux artistes partagent une expérience sensible avec le public. Une expérience commune et pourtant singulière, fugace et toujours en transition, qui souligne l’impossibilité de reproduire l’observation d’un monde en mouvement continu et la richesse spontanée de l’expérience intime.

Emile Rubino (French b. 1992) lives and works in Brussels. His domestic approach to picture-making is informed by a flirtatious relationship to other means of depiction and an embrace of eclecticism. Over the past few years he has been producing modestly scaled photographic tableaux in handcrafted artist’s frames. While his photographs tend to remain rooted within a documentary mode they are also the outcome of labored processes involving photoshop. By locating and following the internal logic of a picture as a subservient strategy his work often results in a contrived kind of photographicness.

He received his BFA from Emily Carr University of Art and Design (Vancouver, Canada) in 2015, and his MFA from Bard College program in advanced photographic studies at ICP (New York, NY) in 2017. Selected solo exhibitions include other things, ICP-Bard studios, New York, NY, Real Allegory, Spare Room, Vancouver, Canada (2015), Still Disappearing, Concourse Gallery, Vancouver, Canada (2012). Recent group exhibitions include Ami Omo (curated by Lucas Blalock), Barbara Walters Gallery, Bronxville, NY (2018), Vancouver Carry On (curated by Felix Rapp), Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp, Belgium (2018).

Un matin, j’ai regardé par la fenêtre, et le lac avait disparu.

La terre était devenue rouge,

le ciel, bleu, le soleil, haut.

Je suis partie faire du vélo.

J’ai emprunté le même chemin en pente,

et j’ai roulé.

Je n’ai pas vu le trou,

les pierres,

le chien.

One morning, I looked out the window, and the lake was gone.

The earth had turned red,

the sky, blue, the sun, high.

I went cycling.

I took the same path on the slope,

and I drove.

I didn’t see the hole,

the stones,

the dog.

Sous couvert de deux avatars créés pour l’occasion, 2 flics ami-ami : Panique à Borth est un récit qui constitue à la fois la trace et le décor de cette exposition, il relate l’évolution d’un travail et raconte un paysage en même temps qu’il se construit.

« À la recherche de l’Atlantide depuis de longues années, A., cryptogéographe acharné et

paranoïaque léger voit ses recherches arriver à une impasse : il doit chercher l’invisible. Le ressurgissement soudain d’une lettre adréssée à son collègue disparu bouscule ses habitudes. Il y

de la lettre, A. Part à la poursuite de son confrère au Pays-de-Galles. En empruntant ses pas,

Destruction / reconstruction
screening of films by Sandra Hauser
artist talk led by Gatien Du Bois

In 1944, a V2 missile aimed at the Schaerbeek train station hit and partially demolished the site that now houses the V2Vingt exhibition space. However, this fact isn’t proven with certainty so that it may have been allied bombs that fell on it. In Germany, allied bombs fell in an eminently larger number. But, according to W.G. Sebald’s observations: this “experience lived by millions of people in the last years of the war, this unprecedented national humiliation, has never really been put into words and (…) those who were directly concerned did not share it or transmit it to the next generations”. The post-war economic miracle and the construction of a new German society took place at the price of a destruction / reconstruction going hand in hand with a ready repression mechanism: a psychic repression and a physical removal of the rubble transformed into artificial mountains.

To examine these destruction / reconstruction processes, Brussels curator Gatien Du Bois has selected four short films by German artist Sandra Hauser (born in 1983 in Bad Aibling, lives and works in Berlin): Trümmerfrauen – Even Wild Dogs Dance, 2016; Kapitulation, 2016; Weißt du wie viel Sternlein stehen (Do you know how many stars there are above?), 2010; The Patient. Investigation for a new identity, 2014-present. This screening will be followed by a discussion with the artist.

A #
Transdisciplinairy artist Stef Meul presents a research on desire.

A # focuses on dialectical relations between intimacy, fragility, realness and fantasies of sex and success.

Stef Meul (°1983, Brussels, Belgium) makes transdisciplinary artworks. By applying a particular and metaphorical language his works engender intuitive associations – these rarely being conclusive. Play and cause of desire are important: during the artistic process, personal perception is affected and common objects transubstantiate.Through his artwork he cares about how life extends beyond its own subjective limits.

Stef often interstices a narration on the limitation of social identities and propagates the expansion of common knowledge resources: in order to challenge the binaries we continually generate between Self and Other – between our sense of human hybridation and radical alterity.

By instigating spaces for performativity and a real intent for social choreographic fields, Stef Meul wants to enable the viewer’s knowledge of the coordinates of the narration of our common world. Art is to be able to be in touch with the work, as well to become interacting, loosing one’s distant safe stance.

Stef’s artworks are based on inspiring situations: reflecting a sensation of dogma’s and reversals, combined with subtle details of odd or eccentric, humour.

On a réussi.

une année passée

et on déambulait formes bouffonnes et blanches et joyeusement tristes dans le jour déjà gris qui ici est le jour de la nuit.

On a réussi.

Quelques heures un exotisme de 3d, d’ennuyé et tout de même, on se croirait dans la descente descendant des fleuves serpents bleu nuit.

Pas de neige plus de nuit, pas de jour, de l’ennui et des bouts épars : des bouteilles brisées faisaient le ciel à nos pieds.

On glissait ou frottait nos pieds gris aux pavés gris, un déhanchement passif, avec en coin comme une pièce qui tourne à jamais, entre chien et loup, des odeurs délavées ou étouffées de tabac, de rêves, avec en coin dans le coin retourné du coude ramené à la bouche des envies d’ailleurs ?

L’ailleurs ah ça, ce serait chouette ! Un monde sans mot puisque qu’on n’articule plus trop t’façon et le romantisme (quand même) il est là au fond de nos poches, la main molle ou le poing serré.

Trouvons le mystère au fond du verre, ou à la surface lisse des coques d’iPhone.

On a réussi pfffou encore.

Pierre-Alain Poirier, 2019

Articulated on the link between formal and informal practices, “Don’t Worry About the Government” spreads along three spaces of the street Théodore Verhaegen in Saint-Gilles: at Cunst-link where the site-specific installation Intérieur d’Accompagnement will be presented, an intervention (Snack Typique) will take place at the Golden Night Shop on the other side of the street and the drawings Fluid Life will be available in the shop Brico Barrière. All these spaces embody Marine Kaiser’s reflexion on intimate and public circulation of commodities, power and representations in our capitalistic multicultural and globalized society.

Marine Kaiser (Geneva, 1992) graduated from HEAD-Geneva before moving to Brussels where she obtained the Master “art practice, critical tools, simultaneous art and context” at ERG in 2016. From then on, her practice develops through exhibitions in Germany (AGB, Berlin), France (pavillon de l’Arsenal, Paris), Italy (Manifesta 12, Palermo) and recently Morrocco (Le 18, Marrakech).
