About the exhibition:

Sarah Pierce has developed a concept that she calls the "community of the exhibition". She describes exhibitions as places where artworks and audiences form a community - across generations, geographies and time. Many of her works testify to Pierce's interest in the figure of the student, especially the art student, and the fragile relationship between teaching and learning, politics and art-making. With Scene of the Myth, the GfZK - Galerie für Zeitgenössische Kunst is showing the artist's first solo exhibition in Germany. In eight expansive installations, performances and video works created over a period of 20 years, she questions what it means to gather, reflect and act in a community. During the exhibition, the artist invites performers and discussion partners to enter into a dialog with her works. She understands the Scene of the Myth not as an actual place, but as a moment in which inherited and invented knowledge come into play.
