The exhibition takes its title from an early unpublished manuscript of a comedic novel by Karl Marx, Scorpion and Felix, in which three characters Merten, the tailor; Scorpion, his son; and Felix, his chief apprentice, engage in a satirical narrative that abstractly
references irresolvable philosophical polemics.
By taking a sociological frame of
reference to one's understanding of the Bible and the creedal formulations of the church, one avoids getting into the divisive and
irresolvable difficulties of deciding what is true in some ultimate, uncontaminated, pristine sense.
