Flâneurs Sans Frontières
Island Espresso, Elizabeth St
April 9-30
Opening 5pm Friday 11th April
Flâneurs Sans Frontières is a group photographic exhibition of street scenes and urban tableux from around the world.
It will be held at Island Espresso, 171 Elizabeth St with the opening to be held at 5pm on Friday, April 11.
The term "flâneur" comes from the French verb flâner, which means "to stroll". A flâneur is thus a person who walks the city in order to experience it.
This exhibition will feature sidewalk botany, accidental humour and incidental street life.
Supported by MidCity Cameraworld, the group has been collating photos from around the world for over a year, enticing would be photographers with the phrase “Become a 'botanist of the sidewalk', and stroll alongside us, monocle cocked, savouring unexpected morsels of international street life.”
