Elizabeth Price Curates

Overview

In a Dream You Saw a Way to Survive and You Were Full of Joy is curated by Turner Prize-winner Elizabeth Price, one of Britain’s most acclaimed artists. Her work often represents a dialogue between the virtual realm of film and the physical world of museum artefacts. In this highly original exhibition she will stage an ‘austere melodrama’, encompassing a vast repertoire of images of the reclining or recumbent body by many artists - in states of weariness, sleep, stupor, reverie, mourning, death and erotic transport or languor.
