A shot from Grosse Fatigue: Camille Henrot.
AN artwork which won a Silver Lion at the Venice Biennale in 2013 is about to go on view in Lismore, Co. Waterford. Attempting to tell the story of the universe’s creation from a computer desktop is the ambitious aim of Grosse Fatigue in which artist Camille Henrot weaves sound, film and narrative. The New York based French artist used the collection of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. Grosse Fatigue premiered at the 2013 Venice Biennale and won a Silver Lion. It can been seen in Ireland from March 8 at Lismore Castle Arts, St. Carthage’s Hall. Curated by Matthew Higgs and presented in collaboration with White Columns Gallery, New York, it will be showing in Lismore on Fridays, Saturdays and Sunday during the hours from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. until April 13.
