sweatshop
boesner Neukölln, Berlin
Happening curated by Jan Kage and Samarah Lilia
the basic idea of SWEAT SHOP is to extrapolate the mutuality of art and money, while commenting on the means of capitalist production in a globalized world, and reflecting on the artistic traditions in the means and ends of production in the eastern and the western philosophy.
A group of 16 contemporary artists of different stylistic backgrounds and origins will work in Berlin-Neukölln Boehner Artsupply store under “sweat shop conditions”. During their six hour shift, all an artist is given is a chair, a table, and their chosen working equipment.
