Exhibition 'Laure Prouvost - the wet wet wanderer' in Kunstinstituut Melly
Prouvost’s installation transforms the ground floor of Witte de With into a sodden sub-aqueous bar, laced with squid ink and dotted with vodka fountains. the wet wet wanderer is a new work by Laure Prouvost developed from a sequence selected from the seven part feature-length film 'The Wanderer' (2012). The latter mis-translates fellow artist Rory Macbeth’s mistranslation of a Kafka novella from German with no knowledge of the language or a dictionary.
