A conceptual circus comes to town
CIRCUSES are popular spectacles designed to make our jaws drop and eyes pop. We sit in awe as acrobats, tight-rope walkers, fire-eaters, human cannonballs and other assorted performers mesmerise us with their daredevilry. The experience is visceral and rarely intellectual. We may be watching but we're not quite looking.
Cabanons, a French circus concept created by contemporary artist Daniel Buren and circus men Fabien Demuynck and Dan Demuynck, reinvents the usual spectator experience and orientates it around the performer's body instead.
Now showing on a field opposite Bugis Junction, Cabanons places the focus almost entirely on the physical feat of the performers.
