Peking2008 > An (extra)ordinary place for a hijacking advertising
-----------------------------------------------------------------

While the olympic curtain softly falls on the chinese repression in Tibet,
the imaginary art-group Les Liens Invisibles celebrates the upcoming
Olympic Games with a new fake-based hybridation between art, activism and
advertising strategies.

Exploiting the global visibility of the Olympic Brand, the ambiguous
www.peking2008.com domain has been used by Les Liens Invisibles as a
powerful advertising medium to subvert attention economy mechanisms and to
promote the tactical (ab)use of fake-publishing as a new paradoxical way to
reclaim the Truth.
