The Economy of the Gift
9 April - 25 May 2010
The Economy of the Gift is a forum for sales and agora for ideas about the economics of art as a commodity with the most complex parameters of value. Eight national and international galleries have partnered up and selected an artist represented by their partner for exhibition at A Foundation. In this process a discourse is created at which the concept of the gift is at the heart of the exchange.
