MAGDALENA MITTERHOFER & SHADE THÉRET, GAIA’S CORNER
JSF DÜSSELDORF, 28 AUGUST 2024

The Julia Stoschek Foundation is pleased to present Gaia’s Corner (2024), a new site-specific work by Magdalena Mitterhofer and Shade Théret. The performance took place by the water feature in front of the main entrance of K20 on Düsseldorf’s Grabbeplatz, accompanied by live music. Gaia’s Corner refers to the myth of the Greek goddess Gaia, the mother of all life, and to the question of how architectural spaces and urban structures influence our perception of nature and artificiality.

Gaia’s Corner was organized by Tabea Marschall as part of the exhibitions “Lynn Hershman Leeson: Are Our Eyes Targets?” and “Digital Diaries”, at JSF Düsseldorf, and is commissioned by the Julia Stoschek Foundation.
