Min Mae’s Tableaux are becoming the stuff of legends.
Apparently it’s the good nudity which empowers rather than the bad nudity which exploits.
The next one is beefing up the musical and theatrical components when it goes on show at the Gorman House Canberra Contemporary Art Space (CCAS).
Here are the details from the FaceBook page:
I Die is a tableau vivant, a living picture created by Min Mae in collaboration with twelve writers, one musician, twelve muses, and their loved ones.
I Die is born of the desire for understanding the impact of death, of dying, of loss, of change. It offers no answers, but lays bare the questionings of it’s seventy or more contributors.
Words by; Maria Fleming, Monica Carroll, Hal Judge, Emma Gibson, Nat Burke, Chanel Cole, Anne-Maree Author, Joan Cornish, David Finigan, Adam Hadley, Andrew Galan, and Naomi Milthorpe.
Music by; Grahame Thompson
Muses; will remain unnamed til the event.
Their will be two showings, first at 7pm, then again at 8pm. Tickets are available at the door. $15/ $10 for CCAS members.
I Die is presented as part of the CCAS performance program. Contains nudity.

Just in case anyone else was wondering;

or you could have followed the provided link.
Chanel Cole will be getting her gear off ?!?
Cheers Pommy Bastard. The links don’t work for me at work and I am too lazy to search google.
Erm, the most recent hey-day of Tableux Vivant was in 1940′s England (eg: Windmill Theatre, WWII), but then kind of fell away under the onslaught of openly erotic stripclubs.
Methinks you may need to do more than just read the first paragraph on Wikipedia, PB.
I finally watched Mrs Henderson presents on the weekend.
Death to the French Postcard. Vive le Tableaux!
Although the whole thing seemed more empowering of Mrs Henderson and Mr Van Damm than empowering to the totties with their gear off.
What is Gorman House Canberra Contemporary Art Space like ? Seated ? standing ?
