Ruth Ewan: It Rains, It Rains

24 x 30.5 cm, 88 p.

“As part of the cultural season Liberté! Bordeaux 2019, the CAPC invited the Scottish artist Ruth Ewan to exhibit in its iconic nave. It Rains, It Rains borrows its title from the folk tune ‘Il pleut, il pleut, bergère’ written by the French revolutionary poet, actor and politician Fabre d’Églantine, who is said to have calmly recited the lyrics of his song before his execution in 1794.” (Idea Books)

I edited the conversation between the artist and the curator and translated it from English to French.
