Le Cercle Book Launch
Le Cercle is born of a collaboration between skateboard expert/photographer Benjamin Deberdt and poet/skateboarder Mark Gonzales.
Overview
Ever dreamed about joining nine skateboards together to create a giant skateboard loop, known as a Circle Board, and skating this Circle Board in front of the Eiffel Tower at the crack of dawn? If your answer to that question is ‘Yeah, but on my current retail/hospitality/Centrelink wages I just can’t afford to head up to Paris, plus I lack the technical abilities to join nine skateboards together’ then the next best thing is Le Cercle, the latest title from Izrock Pressing.
Le Cercle is born of a collaboration between skateboard expert/photographer Benjamin Deberdt and poet/skateboarder Mark Gonzales. Gonzales created the Circle Board and rode it at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, all the while being photographed by Deberdt. The resulting prints were then drawn on by Gonzales, resulting in Le Cercle.
The Outpost plays host to the launch of Le Cercle, with a display of prints from the book, a projected video of Gonzales riding the Circle Board in Paris and live music from Nite Fields. It’s free, too, so you can’t blame your lack of Centrelink benefits if you don’t end up attending.
