La grande évasion (teaser)

Working on a commission from the Musée de la danse, Pierre Leguillon (F, 1969, based in Brussels)  went in search of photographs to build a network of associations linked with the idea of dance. Images of dancing, or that dance in their own right?
Dealing with movement at the margins – details, echos, gestures, allusions – above all, they are  signs in circulation, linked by historical, thematic or simply subjective connections. To bring these unrelated images, gathered from the internet to the public, Leguillon hatched a kind of escape plan in several phases: from classifying, to displaying in public, to uploading onto FlickR, and finally to their material presence in the exhibition space, in the style of a mobile mini-museum of dance.
Taking these scattered photographs as a starting point, each of us can imagine their own story, recreating their own choreography in the manner of a flip-book.
