Titled Scene of the Myth, Pierce's exhibition explores her expansive art practice, which consists of installations, performances, archives, talks and papers. You'll experience Pierce's interests that include radical pedagogies, student work, learning communities, rebellions, and historical figures.

A large body of recent works relates to Sarah Pierce's interest in the figure of the student, in particular the art student, and the relationship between teaching and learning, politics and art-making.

This John Hansard Gallery exhibition will feature a significant selection of projects with students, who are regular collaborators in her work, including Campus (2011), a repeated performance by art students that mirrors repetitious acts in how art is understood, made, and installed.
