by Vermeir & Heiremans
at Rencontres Internationales
25 – 30 June 2013
presented by the Haus Der Kulturen Der Welt


During 6 days the program offers a space for discovery and thought covering the fields of new cinema and contemporary art, gathering 115 works from 48 countries, Contemporary visual culture occupies the interface between aesthetic, social and political issues and adapts to the continuing development of production and dissemination technologies. The Rencontres Internationales offers a future-oriented way of observing these practices. The program was first presented last November at Palais de Tokyo in Paris. Following its stop in Berlin, it goes on show in September 2013 in Madrid.
