Poses pour caméras de surveillance


(Posing for surveillance cameras)

Intervention
Toronto
2009




Intervention carried out in Toronto. Members of the collective Exo were assigned a pose taken from a magazine or fashion advertisement. In the following two days, each of them had to strike the pose, alone or in a group, in front of the surveillance cameras they passed, keeping the pose for one minute. Neither passersby nor security guards could be made aware of the intention behind the gesture; for this reason, most of the poses were not documented.
Performers: Jeanne Bourgoin, Briana Bray, Christian Bujold, David Manseau, Marion Prével et Vassili Stanajic Pétrovic
