STEP UP! - Chapter 3
Belgian Dance and Performance on Camera 1970-2000

Opening Night: Saturday 13th of May 2017 // 18:00-21:00

With over fifty films and videos from the Argos Collection, the evolving group exhibition STEP UP! provides an exciting selection of Belgian works at the intersection of dance, performance and visual arts from the period 1970-2000.

Without having encyclopedic ambitions, STEP UP! offers an overview of 30 years of Belgian artistic production. During the exhibition period, the project eleborates in five completely different stages. 

Having focused mainly in earlier chapters on the roots of dance and performance film and video, in our third and last part of STEP UP! we choose a bolder road.


In the exhibition we confront various historical choreographies with works by artists that are not linked to the world of dance or performance,
but that also breathe a similar aesthetics, position or philosophy. Did artists belonging to different disciplines and backgrounds used to work with the same semiotic language? What kind of overlaps and differences are there with regard to content, concept, as well as formal language?

STEP UP! Belgian Dance and Performance on Camera 1970-2000 CHAPTER 3 teems with pioneering works of art. Chapter 3 is divided in
two parts; you will find the participating artists below.

Curated by Andrea Cinel & Ive Stevenheydens.
