Subject(s):

Summary: Legsicon' delves into the philosophical depths of the artist’s practice, through the familiar, if transformed, format of a lexicon, to portray the work of an artist developing complex thought through artistic languages. Deviating from a typical monograph, Legsicon functions as a sort of dictionary, exploring and expanding on thirty-six notions in Prouvost’s work, with each incorporating a commissioned text, new drawings created by the artist, and selected documentation of her related works. Playful, serious, absurd, seductive, and bodily, 'Legsicon' is published to accompany her exhibition at M HKA, Antwerp.
