Abstract |
Haiven uses money-art--the work of visual, performance and participatory artists who use money as medium or material for artistic intervention or expression--to help tell a story or a suite of short stories, about the relationship between culture and the economy in a time when the line between the two is increasingly blurred. By exploring the way contemporary artists engage with cash, debt and credit, the author identifies and assesses a range of creative strategies for mocking, sabotaging, exiting, decrypting and hacking capitalism today. --Adapted from publisher description. |
