Renaud Marion: Attraction

Date
26 October 2011

If you’re anything like me then you too will find it impossible to walk past a group of people clearly enthralled by something – the fear of missing out on something amazing is just too devastating to contemplate. French photographer Renaud Marion has played with that idea, taking photographs of street performers and replacing the men and women wowing the crowds with zoo animals. The extraordinary urban interlopers include a rhino, giraffes and a bear, and question the way in which modern society views the natural world. Above all though, they’re fabulous fun.
