This paper aims to analyze the work of art La Loge des Fratellini by the contemporary French artist Michel Aubry, especially given his exhibition at the 30th Bienal de Arte of São Paulo (2012). The artwork was an installation that mimicked a circus dressing room. Instead of costumes for spectacles, however, military clothes and objects were exposed. As we go deeper into the installation, we discover these costumes were used on Aubry’s earlier works of art. The artist produced a series of videos re-filming war movies of the first half of the twentieth century; the costumes used in those films were exposed in the dressing room. Besides, the artist promoted a performance art from the objects of the installation: a fashion show in which the models wore the costumes exposed. This article approaches the dialogue between war, fashion, costume, performance art, and cinema.
