The title was The Corporate Head, which makes it unsearchable. It was a sculpture of a bust, with cutaway sections. Inside were other heads, in various positions, giving the impression of a community of ideas (at least that was my interpretation).

I don't know how popular the piece was, but I liked it, and slowed down whenever I drove by.

[Manifestation d’indifférence, Performance collective, Nancy,2012]

Collections @fracpoitoucharentes

Ce cortège léthargique, sans revendication, sans idéaux, sans dénonciation compose un mouvement critiquant notre contexte urbain contemporain fondé sur le flux. Cette manifestation se situe, en la caricaturant, à l’encontre de l’uniformisation massives des comportement, dans leur rationalisation et neutralité. La parade indifférente s’insère dans les mouvement quotidiens de la rue mais s’en dégage par sa rigueur : il s’agit de marcher à la même distance les uns des autre (2 mètres) et de conserver un faciès neutre.

Nancy, janvier et mai 2012 ;

Belfort, avril 2018 – dans le cadre de l’exposition «Ce qui nous tient, ce à quoi nous tenons» programmée par le théâtre du Granit – curateur : Mickaël Roy ;

Bordeaux, octobre 2018 – dans le cadre de la journée d’étude “Conflit(s) et espace(s)” programmée par les doctorants TELEM de l’université Bordeaux Montaigne.

Le protocole “Manifestation d’indifférence” est developpé dans l’ouvrage collectif « Art performance, manœuvre, coefficients de visibilité »,
Les presses du réel, 2019.
Edité par Michel Collet et André Éric Létourneau.
