THE PARADOX OF
THE ART MARKET
The art business, a trade
in things that have no price,
belongs to a class of practices in
which the logic of the
pre-capitalist economy
lives on...
...this economic
universe, whose very
functioning is defined by a
refusal of the commercial
which is in fact a collective
disavowal of commercial
interests...
a consensual
hallucination?
WHAT DOES
IT MEAN TO BE A
SOMEBODY?
DO YOU KNOW
THE WHOS WHO?
OF WHAT?
