This multi-genre exhibition explores perspectives on cinema from the 1960’s-present by 13 artists, with strong references to the work and writings of prolific filmographer Marcel Broodthaers. The works on display, from photography to video and installations, cover themes ranging from “the relationship between image and text (narrative)”, “translation”, “reading the archive”, “fiction and reality” and “still and moving imagery”.
