Cultural Currency: Contemporary Art from the Riemer Collection presents the innovative ways artists use money as a conceptual idea and medium to explore notions of value and worth beyond declared denominations.
For centuries, the constant exchange of money for goods and services has been core to our daily lives. We rely on monetary transactions, a quintessential human act, to meet our needs and desires – from luxury purchases to essential items like food and shelter. Given this worldwide phenomenon, consumers rarely consider the aesthetic qualities of currency, which range in various colors and sizes, and designed by artists. As artist Ray Beldner aptly points out, U.S. currency is “the world’s biggest ongoing print edition. Every bill is unique, and it’s numbered uniquely. It’s signed by the person that caused it to be made, the Secretary of the Treasury. It’s made from archival materials. It’s 100 percent cotton. It’sbeautifully done.” In its most basic form, money is art! Learn more
