Description:

Infraduction is a single-channel video work by Istvan Kantor and Robert Filliou in which the two engage in a language game. Standing side by side with blindfolds tied around their mouths, they take turns introducing themselves in French as famous artists and musicians, each of them providing the name for the other.

The work was produced at Véhicule Art, Montréal.
