REHEARSING REVOLUTION

In Rehearsing Revolution, for hundred minutes the Authentic Boys took secondary school pupils along in a light-hearted experiment, in which their ‘revolutionary potential’ was tested. Completing a performative course and answering questions led to radical and uncompromising choises, whereby the focus was on rebelling against personal habits and limits. Over 500 students between the ages of 13 and 18 took part in this two-month project.

The photo series ‘Rehearsing Revolution – a performative training ground’ shows a selection of the portrait photos that were taken during the project. The disguises were made by the pupils themselves in just a few minutes.
