For almost twenty years the Dutch artists Jan Dietvorst and Roy Villevoye have been exploring issues as diverse as anthropological representation, the conventions of documentary filmmaking and culture as a means of adaptation and re-enactment. The publication 'Evidence' is published on the occasion of their first major solo exhibition 'Evidence' in Belgium, which was from 13 May to 16 July 2017 in Argos, Brussels. The method of editing used in their collective film work has been applied in this book to 148 photographs from their archives. In his contribution to the book, art historian and curator of the exhibition Andrea Cinel discusses the non-narrative and non-linear way in which their work makes connections and creates meaning. Filmmaker An van Dienderen, who obtained a PhD in Comparative Cultural Sciences, places their work outside the traditional documentary genre that she considers characterized by a predictable claim to reality and a fixed relationship of authority between filmmaker and subject. Her text is a plea for the cinematography of visual artists. Exhibition: Argos, Brussels, Belgium (14.05.-16.07.2017).
