Take The Money and Run
De Appel (old location), Amsterdam
The three curators (Danila Cahen, Nell Donkers and Edna van Duyn i.c.w. Ann Demeester) have invited the artists to make a new work on A4, in which the changed value system within the art world in these times of financial crisis, is being brought up for discussion. After being exhibited, the conceptual works, texts, drawings, promises, understatements, ideas, visions and performances will be part of the "Two in One" auction taking place at Christie's on 20 May.
Curators: Danila Cahen, Nell Donkers and Edna van Duyn i.c.w. Ann Demeester
At the location where Wies Smals initiated de Appel in 1974, thirty artists are reflecting within the context of the auction upon the relationship between the economic and the symbolic value of art. The three curators, members of de Appel’s staff, have invited the artists to make a new work on A4, in which the changed value system within the art world in these times of financial crisis, is being brought up for discussion. After being exhibited, the conceptual works, texts, drawings, promises, understatements, ideas, visions and performances will be part of the “Two in One” auction taking place at Christie’s on 20 May. The project is an empathetic critique from within, in which de Appel and the artists assume the simultaneous role of contemporary collaborator and critical inquirer.
