The Facts
On September 28, 2026, Lisson Gallery announced that Laure Prouvost's immersive multimedia installation 'Hovering Caress Amère' is now on view at the 18th Biennale de Lyon. The biennale, titled 'To pass from one dream to another', runs from September 19 to December 13, 2026, and is directed by Isabelle Bertolotti and curated by Catherine Nichols. Prouvost's work explores narrative, language, and sensory experience, addressing themes of kinship, migration, climate change, and interspecies relations through inventive storytelling and wordplay.
The Signal
The presentation at a major international biennale underscores Prouvost's standing as a leading contemporary artist, following her Turner Prize win and participation in the Venice Biennale. For collectors, the installation exemplifies the growing trend of immersive, multimedia environments in contemporary art. The biennale's theme of passageways and alternative temporalities provides a resonant context for Prouvost's practice, which often blurs boundaries between media and perception.
