Le Paradoxe de John

Philippe Quesne continues to share his musings on the place of art in our daily lives. He stages the adventures of a fictional character, John, who is busy setting up an art gallery, surrounded by his guests. On stage, a poetic and funny universe takes shape, made up of animated objects, a player piano, and foam sculptures—a world in which four performers evolve in a polyphonic composition.
