Directed by Olivier Lépine, the show questions the dichotomy between art and non-art, through the performance of seven internationally renowned circus artists and a multi-instrumentalist. The initial and refined setting of a vernissage gives way to a colorful and irreverent mise en scène, in which dark clothes are tinged with shades of color and champagne flutes are replaced by brushes for painting. The viewer thus witnesses a true transfiguration on the scene, in which a stroke of the receiver, a watercolor in the Russian bar, a collage of choreographic juggling are just some of the most spectacular moments of creation.
The boundary between what is art and what is not, gradually vanishes, leaving the viewer puzzled but above all stunned by the phantasmagoria of the proposal in which humor and poetry meet.
