Sven Augustijnen

Sven Augustijnen (1970, BE) lives and works in Brussels. His films, publications, and installations on political, historical, and social themes constantly challenge the genre of the documentary, reflecting a wider interest in historiography and a predilection for the nature of storytelling.

Augustijnen has had solo shows at Kunsthalle Bern, Wiels, Contemporary Art Centre (Brussels), de Appel arts centre (Amsterdam), Malmö Konsthall, Vox, Centre pour l’Image contemporaine (Montreal), and CCS Bard (Annandale-on-Hudson). Recent group shows include The Unfinished Conversation, The Power Plant (Toronto) and Ce qui ne sert pas s’oublie, CAPC (Bordeaux). Augustijnen is a founding member of Auguste Orts (Brussels).
