How much are you willing to pay for this book? € 9, € 28 or € 150? The buyers of the book become part of a process of value and value generation: Do they choose the bargain with the evaluative addition "cheap" on the cover, do they buy the book at the (subsidised) market price, or do they pay the honest price of its socially and ecologically fair production? The unusual and also radical concept follows the interest of the Danish artist group SUPERFLEX in value systems and the emergence shifting of valuations.
The exhibition Sometimes As A Fog, Sometimes As A Tsunami by SUPERFLEX at Kunsthaus Graz is focusing on the instability of capitalism inherent in the speculative nature of financial markets and instruments and is examining the dissolving factor of capitalist-oriented action on society. The illustrated book places the works on display in a larger discursive context and locates them in SUPERFLEX's artistic practice from its earliest works to the present.
With texts by Barbara Steiner, Martin Grabner, Dirk Raith and Steven Zultanski.
