AND – A NEW FUND FOR NEW TIMES…
WITH (withyou.co.uk) and Artprojx (artprojx.com) have joined forces to create AND – A New Fund For New Times. AND is an opportunity and a provocation that gleefully revisits a tradition within conceptual art of proposing new economic constructs, in an attempt to reflect and overcome creaking financial systems.
By appropriating the readymade structure of a fund, AND have turned the exhibition into a simple tool for generating capital by designing a collection of objects that have little function beyond their accumulation of financial value. Stripped almost entirely from any form of individual authorship the work itself becomes the hand that feeds the concept – it lives or dies depending on its ability to generate capital as it progresses through its self designated phases of growth.
And yet could AND suffocate under the weight of its own potential? Where does the capital value of each PHASE begin and end? By the time PHASE SIX is swinging into production will those who own a part of PHASE ONE have a more valuable asset? When will the raw value of the projects materials in the new phases overtake the symbolic value of the early phases? Are the objects of each phase worth more collectively than individually?
There’s only one-way to find out: invest early and take your chances. AND, A New Fund For New Times – a failsafe self-fulfilling prophecy? You decide.
