Max Mara Art Prize for Women: Laure Prouvost
Winner of the Max Mara Art Prize for Women, Laure Prouvost creates a two-part installation inspired by the aesthetic and sensuous pleasures of Italy.
Referencing a historical panorama, a large circular space within the Gallery is designed with a painted frieze and Roman columns. An inner chamber reveals a film that shows fragments of footage, from birds to women bathing in waterfalls. Exploring language and translation, Prouvost plays on the historic idea of visiting the Mediterranean for inspiration and takes us on a journey into the past.
