THE EULOGY OF LAZINESS

Pauline Le Goïc (Rennes, France)

 

"The eulogy of laziness" is a performative "non-action" in the street. It comes to cause interference on the wild rhythm of our megalopolises by proposing a ruling in the city. In a hammock fastened to the street furniture, a lazy person relaxes, anaesthetized by the excitement of the place.

 

in the streets of Montreal, Square Victoria, around 4pm

 

 

 

POETIC TEA AND JAM

 

Featuring poets: Cassandra Witteman, Izzy Insane, Virgil Addison, and more...  Authentic Automatic Tea Ceremony following the performance with hot tea and treats for all.  Poetry panel begins at 7pm investigating the statement "Weaving Words With Life".

MIREILLE

 

Her 1st opus, out in 2008, offers songs with 1000 words to the square foot and catchy hooks which stay in your head! In the steps of nouvelle chanson française, Mireille has character and poetry flirting with the surreal which makes her signature singular. Wether we think of Jos Violon, the coloured character of Canadian writer Louis Fréchette, or of her Caméléon, a pure cartoon, Mireille surprises. Moreover, she acknowledges that like her Danseuse astronaute, she dreams to be in orbit out of time! www.toutsurmireille.com

ISABELLE LARRIVÉE

 

Even though Gainsbourg, said that song is a minor art, Isabelle Larrivée proves that it is also and still literature.  She uses humour and perspicacity to deliver a sometimes devastating assessment of the inhumanity which has become overwhelming with its procession of plagues. However corrosive, this universe offers spaces of fragility and heartwarming human bonding, bringing us closer to the best that remains of us. www.myspace.com/isabellelarrivee
