Exchange Values on the table

Frans Hals Museum / De Hallen, Netherlands.
September 2017 - extended until March 2018.

Exchange Values on the Table [2007 onwards] was part of the exhibition: The Global Table. A transhistorical exhibition curated for the museum by Abigail Winograd.

This is the 13th showing of Exchange Values. The focus of this version was on ‘The Global Economy and the Image of the Human Being’; ‘The Future of Work’ and ‘Beyond Monocultures of the Mind’ and ‘Monocultures of the Banana'‘. 16 intensive day-long processes took place at the table in addition to shorter sessions organised by the museum’s education team for schools.
