Making Things Happen: art under the economy
Artists point at what they believe to be valuable, sometimes challenging, and sometimes reinforcing prevailing ways of thinking. That’s why they’re important to economic growth, but also why they can challenge the assumptions on which the economy is based. Join Shelagh Wright, Charlie Tims and other speakers for a workshop exploring their IETM-commissioned paper which looks at how artists are responding to the vice-like grip economics holds on politics, culture and our day-to-day life – and at how we might help build an economy which we can trust to value what matters.
Speakers:
Shelagh Wright – Co-director Mission Models Money
Charlie Tims – Researcher – Mission Models Money
