Specifically, Great Ameriaca delves in Schwensen's current research into the contrasting socio-political history of the United States as a behavioral conditioner against the performative behavior of traumatized hominids. Constructing a version of a history/mythology that collapses in on itself through its inherent contradictions, as official histories tend to do under scrutiny. Opening on the 21st of October the exhibition continues until the 7th of November.
