His lens captures a portrait of America right after World War II – a central theme in Kubrick’s films. This idea of social portrayal is at the heart of our presentation of Kubrick and informed our organization of his documentary photographs. His themes include crime scenes, the life of a shoeshine man, a university theatre troupe, etc.

It’s party time – the Offscreen Film Festival celebrates its fifth anniversary ! From March 7 to 25, 2012, the spotlight of this annual rendez-vous for enthusiasts of bizarre and cult cinema, is on independent filmmakers, cult classics and eccentric genres from all over the world. All shows take place on different locations in Brussels, and especially for this festive fifth edition, there’s two film-related music concerts as well. So – yeah !
Here is my film list: http://www.imdb.com/list/oUYmj-zYKi8/
The Festival of contemporary music in Belgium was founded in 1989, initiated by a bunch of music lovers …
In the two decades of its existence it became one of the reference festivals in Europe.
The concerts take place in March, each year. The bulk of the concerts happen in Brussels where Ars Musica is based, yet concerts also take place in Antwerp, Bruges, Liège and Mons. Altogether over 50 concerts and events for an audience of about 20.000 people.
Bulex parties were amazing. The concept was alternative and held in old naval school in the northern part of the city. Many rooms, different types of music. Art on the walls, broken windows, quite underground. Then it become popular like real clubs and then the school was no longer accessible for the parties so Bulex came to an end. Well not exactly, the parties started to take place in random locations.
And now after some years Bulex is going to rock again. You want to indulge yourself?

Great festival, great animations. I will update this post with the films I have seen. Now the best of shorts is going to start.
EDIT: Anima 2012 made me really happy. Here is the list of long feature films that I have seen in the order I found from best to worst. Actually there are is no worst, they all were amazing.

What’s up?
15/06-25/09 2011For many years now, our research has proved successful in environments as diverse and varied as creative workshops within institutions for the mentally disabled, day centres, psychiatric care units, as well as with artists who are predominantly self-taught. And the source doesn’t dry up. This exhibition offers a wide overview of our recent discoveries, and goes beyond the categorizations of in- and outsiders. About ten artists from various backgrounds will unveil their peculiar imaginary worlds, al of which are of great diversity and expressive power: paintings, models, textile creations, notebooks, drawings, installations, sculptures…
