Reconstitution of "the lecture on Hans K. " By Duchamp Duchamp (Blainville, 1955)
This "winged hare", this "other animal", this strange beast of the theatre, is an ensemble made up of three plays, an exhibition and some lectures/shows : the spectator does not have to see them all, each element can be appreciated separately but the ensemble does have ramifications and the logic of a particular universe that discloses more secrets to the most curious spectators. As for the peripheral events, the exhibition of "Les Bas morceaux de l'Odalisque", this is a way to see the retrospective of the original works of Duchamp Duchamp, and the lectures on "Hans K. un cas de figure", enriches the history of photography through the revelations of an astonishing portrait artist. O. Darbelley, M. Jacquelin and their team modify the perception of the spectator by playing with space and ritual. With constant humour, they pay a poetic homage to the boldness of the Twentieth Century and create a genre of performance and a form of contemporary art that are open to the world and to the public.
