The Flux and the Puddle
Nov 12-Jan 31; Louisiana Museum of Modern, Gl Strandvej 13, Humlebæk; 115kr
The human body, technology and the world are all represented in The Flux and the Puddle, a giant installation made by the Canadian artist David Altmejd.

The futuristic 3 x 4 metre large object – made out of plexiglas, wax and latex – will give you goosebumps.

The work is one of Altmejd’s most recognised and has been shown all over the world, but never in Denmark.

The exhibition is part of Louisana’s ongoing series One Work, which shows one-off, large-scale works like the video installation The Enclave by Richard Mosse earlier this year.
