Jouer avec le temps at TOHU through March 13, 2022 LiveEvents January 11, 2022 1394 TOHU presents Jouer avec le temps by photographer Benoit Z. Leroux Benoit Z. Leroux’s photographs demonstrate his discovery of the circus world and the encounters that were born from it. Exchanges and creative collaborations with great artists sometimes give astonishing, poetic and intimate results, whether it is through photos captured in a fraction of a second or in long exposure. The varied works have been taken in action during the representations as well as one on one with acrobats – in the streets of Montreal, in theaters or in studios. Through the diversity of techniques, Jouer avec le temps offers a different perspective of the circus world and its artists. “The various works were shot as much in the action of shows as alone with acrobats; in the streets of Montreal, in theaters or in studios.” After viewing these amazing photos check out another great TOHU exhibit: Tout un cirque The great adventure of circus arts in Quebec An exhibition that celebrates the incredible journey of the circus arts in Quebec, from their inception in Montreal in 1796 until they burst onto the scene in the 1980s and right up to today. Discover over a hundred extraordinary documents, costumes, posters, objects and photos that honour celebrated artists and track the rise to international stardom of a circus community unlike any other.
