The One Minutes X Chinese European Art Center (CEAC) present \u2018Mind-body-problem’.<\/p>\n

On show from April 16 till May 21 at CEAC is The One Minutes Series \u2018Mind-body-problem\u2019 curated by Sander Breure & Witte van Hulzen and 10 new works responding to the theme of \u2018Mind-body-problem\u2019 selected by CEAC.<\/p>\n

Artist duo Sander Breure & Witte van Hulzen selected videos that depict the relationship between the soul and the body \u2013 whether as a metaphor, a problem or even a bad joke. \u2018Mind-body-problem\u2019 asks the age-old question: how can matter ever come to life?<\/p>\n

The 22 selected videos were sent in from Belgium, Benin, France, Germany, Greece, Iraq, Kurdistan, Morocco, Netherlands, Senegal, Spain and United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe mind-body-problem is a question one runs into almost inevitably when working with figurative sculpture. How can matter ever come to life? It is an age old question in itself that inspired the medieval Arabic novel of Ibn Tufayl in which a boy growing up on a deserted island dissects the dead deer that raised him, looking at the intestines, the lungs, the heart, the brain, in a search for the part that made her alive. It seemed to us a question worthwhile to ask to our
\ncolleagues, our fellow filmmakers and artists, and one that evoked many
\ncounter-questions, such as:<\/p>\n

Would you like to be cremated or buried?
\nDoes a fly have thoughts?
\nCan I see what someone else sees?
\nIs the cat in the box alive or not?
\nIf the soul inhabits a body, could a spirit inhabit a sculpture?
\nWhat is the difference between a video of a man and his mirror image?
\nIs a fight with an umbrella ever a spiritual struggle?
\nWhy is it so hard to say goodbye?\u201d<\/p>\n

Sander Breure and Witte van Hulzen are two cousins who collaborate on the production
\nof videos and performances focusing on human behaviour; the encoded structures in that
\nbehaviour, the influence of time and place on the relationships between people.
\nTheater has been an important factor in their work from the very start. They studied
\nat Rijksakademie voor beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam in 2017 and began making sculptures
\n\u2013 assemblages in the form of human figures.<\/p>\n

Participating artists:
\nHeidi Vogels, Elle Burchill, Thierry Oussou, Sabine Mooibroek, Elisabeth Molin, Michelle Son
\nKani Marouf, Vincent Verhoef, Natasha Papadopoulou, Tao G. Vrhovec Sambolec, Denise Kehoe
\nEmma van der Put, Peter Ewig, Christine Moldrickx, Raluca Moldoveanu, Bas Schevers
\nBen Rivers, Antonis Pittas, Daouda Dia, Iqra Tanveer, Paulien Oltheten, Hamza Halloubi<\/p>\n

The One Minutes Series ‘Mind-body-problem\u2019 is selected for 68th International Film Festival Oberhausen,
\none of the most important short film institutions anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n

The 10 newly selected films can be regarded as a second inner dialogue of artists within
\nthe theme series \u201cMind-body-problem\u201d. Based on the original concept, the reconnection and
\nquestioning of the individual brought by the theme are triggered. Faced with the age-old
\nphilosophical question, we may wonder: are mind and body separate entities, or are they
\nclosely linked by unity?<\/p>\n

Participating artists:
\nTemo Dou, Johnnie, Frank Stassen, Maartje Jaquet, Elaine Crowe, Jiawen Li, Zhiwan Cheung
\nSheng TangHua, Othonas Charalambous, Chenny Ye<\/p>\n

The exhibition \u2018Mind-body-problem\u2019 is a collaboration between The One Minutes and
\nChinese European Art Center (CEAC).
