La Galerie

The circus comes to the museum! In the monotonous whitecube of a contemporary art gallery, eight characters lightly mock its conventions. Rigid and uptight at the start, they unwind with colorful, liberatory, and acrobatic élan. From the first to last moments of a performance that forges ahead at full speed, the sets are constructed and deconstructed in the service of a suite of inventive and supercharged numbers. Eyes widen and light up before these artists who are alternately circus performers, dancers, actors or musicians, but above all, they are very touching. And that is indeed fine art.
