Giant theater figures invade the streets of Toulouse

At 15 meters above the ground, one can see the "Asterion" mechanical figure, similar to a minotaur, which is part of the street show created by the theater company La Machine. Among the contributors is also the mechanical spider, renamed "Ariane".

The show called "The Guardian of the Temple" aims to gather the city and its inhabitants around an artistic work, to talk and make the city a theater, said the creator François Delarozière local media , to write
New York Times.

The creators, with the Toulouse cityscape as scenography, want to play a renowned classic myth of Ariane. Nearly 400,000 spectators are expected over the weekend.

Once completed, the mechanical figurines will be shipped Sunday in a new art gallery. Your visitors will also have the opportunity to ride on the back of the Minotaur, by writing
