Show me the Monet
2006
Show Me The Monet takes an eclectic look at the ways in which art and money influence each other, for good or ill, in the London visual art world. Taking as its starting point the working practices of curators, artists, commissioners and arts marketing specialists, Show Me The Monet exposes the inner machinations of contemporary art practices through a series of conversations. Rather than impose a theory to be tested, a panel discussion at the end of the series will use initial discursive research to detect an emergent theory. Our intrepid citizen reporter will be finding out what the public thinks of the issues on the streets of London and Sydney. In collaboration with heraclitus.
