Have you heard of Plonk&Replonk ? These local humorists make hilarious non sense photomontages, with a Belle Epoque flavour. They publish one every Saturday in Le Temps (page 2), about the Life and Feats of Helvetus IV, imaginary king of Switzerland.
They currently hold an exhibition at the Musee du Leman in Nyon, with absurd images of the lake, featuring :
-the lake cavalry;
-underwater baloon explorers;
-the hairy trout;
-the nitroglycerine swan fishing :
-the hammer swan fishing :
-the summit of the lake;
-the ventriloquist carp, etc…
The captions are in French but even if you don’t understand them, it’s still extremely funny. We went there on Monday and everybody was delighted. If you like Monthy Python like humor, don’t miss it !
