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 notto 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.
