"Laure Prouvost: For Forgetting"

The French transplant to London nabbed 2013's Turner Prize with a first-person narrative video installation, staged among the remnants of some sort of tea or dinner party. In the tape, she relates the tale of her artist grandfather, who attempted to dig a tunnel to Africa as his final work. She takes over the New Mu's Lobby Gallery with an offering that similarly explores the often slippery relationship between memory and storytelling, in a piece featuring five video screens embedded within a semicircular wall covered by a large photo collage.
