Sara-Lena Maierhofer - Dear Clark 16 December - 8 February 2012 In Dear Clark, Sara-Lena Maierhofer seeks rapprochement to a fraudster, a crook whose life consists of adopting and abandoning different identities. When she fails to arrange a meeting with the person in question, she decides to study him from a distance. Step by step, the artist comes closer to getting to know her subject; his appearance, his peculiarities, his intentions. How can one construct a profile of someone who constantly readjusts himself? What characterizes a man who systematically defies character? How do you grab someone who constantly aims to breakaway?
