Walk of Three Chairs shows the artist Breda Beban and a Romany band floating on a raft between two banks of the Danube river in Belgrade, believed by some to be the point at which the Balkans end and Europe begins. One bank reveals an industrial landscape whilst the other is populated by trees and wooden dachas. BREDA BEBAN (Novi Sad, Serbia 1952) “Walk of Three Chairs” (2003, 10’)

Under Construction deals with the phenomenon of gentrification, as shown in the violent proceedings in the city of Shanghai and the paradoxical but logical results of the ecologically-motivated demand for urban density. ZHENCHEN LIU (Shanghai, China 1976) “Under Construction” (2007, 9’ 55’’)

Mark Raidpere lives and works in Tallinn. He focuses on the bodyscape in a new and unexpected way. As a mirror of the artist's corporal identity, the photographic medium assumes a quite usual role here, at first sight, the different layers of meaning only appear later. MARK RAIDPERE (Tallin, Estonia 1975) “Majestoso Mystico” (2007, 10’ + 35’)
