GAST BOUSCHET AND NADINE HILBERT
Gast Bouschet (�1958) and Nadine Hilbert (�1961) were both born in Luxembourg and for the moment they are living between Luxembourg, Brussels and elsewhere. Bouschet takes and exhibits his photos and videos all over the world since the 1980s, particularly fascinated with the potential of the recorded image as a reflection, a comment and transformation of political and social-economic sign systems, visible within the morphology of urbane tissues and border zones. Since 1998 he has worked with Nadine Hilbert, who insured, among others, the sound for projects like Radio Cosmos (1998), This Space Between Us (2000), Zona Del Silencio (2001) and the online project www.thetrustfiles.net.

Numerous group and solo shows including: MUDAM, Luxembourg, Luxembourg 2008; Trienal de Luanda, Angola 2007; Vitrines, Dudelange, Luxembourg 2007; Camouflage, Brussels, Belgium 2005; Busan Biennale of Contemporary Art, Korea 2002; Casino, Luxembourg, Luxembourg 2002; Camouflage, Johannesburg, South Africa 2000; MUHKA, Antwerp, Belgium 2000; CCA, Glasgow, Scotland 1998.
