Dread Scott’s first solo gallery exhibition in 20 years documents Slave Rebellion Reenactment, his 2019 community-engaged performance project reenacting the German Coast Uprising of 1811, the largest rebellion of enslaved people in U.S. history. The show, which closes this week, features large-scale performance stills from piece, which featured hundreds of Black performers in 19th-century French colonial garments, as well as flags and banners that they carried, designed by Scott for the occasion.
