KochxBos gallery presents at Art Rotterdam 2021 'The World As We Know It' by Sarah Maple
The twenty-second edition of Art Rotterdam, once again to be held in the iconic Van Nelle Factory, is taking place at the height of summer from Thursday 1 July to Sunday 4 July. This year, there will be lots to experience and discover outdoors around the building. Large-scale works and installations, including the work of Sarah Maple. Her work is in place L, at the entrance of the fair.
This installation depicts a billboard reading ‘The World As We Know It’ discharged in a skip. Initially made as a response to the UK’s departure from the EU, now adapted and changed as the political climate does.
And now it's urgent again with the global pandemic, this piece could not be more relevant. Much like the pandemic, it asks the viewer to discard what they know, reimagine the future and rethink individualism.
The towering scale allows the viewer to see themselves as a smaller part in a larger narrative.
This is also an announcement for Sarah Maple's new exhibition starting September 4, the opening of the new gallery season.
