C0N10UR: We are rooted but we flow

Since 2003, the Contour Biennial of Moving Images has occupied a distinct position in the Belgian visual arts landscape. The tenth edition —named C0N10UR— is curated by Auguste Orts and runs from September 9 to November 5 2023. C0N10UR brings together work by artists residing in Belgium and offers a generous combination of engaged documentaries and film essays, audiovisual installations and sound works centered around voice and music.

Four venues in Mechelen are chosen, in order to showcase the works with care: nona, Museum Hof van Busleyden, Lumière and De Garage. In addition, there are two locations outside Mechelen: argos center for audiovisual arts (Brussels) and Kunsthal Extra City (Antwerp).
