Publication focussing on two new works by Jan Dietvorst and Roy Villevoye created for the exhibition Evidence at Argos - Centre for Art and Media, Brussels from May 14 to July 16, 2017. In this exhibition the artists address essentially two issues: the memory of the Great War in Northern France and Flanders, and their frequent stays with Asmat people in the tropical rainforest of the Papua province of Indonesia. 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 mean of adaptation and re-enactment. The method of editing used in their collective film work has been applied in this book to 148 photographs from their archives.
