Carey Young: artist working on economy / business

Posted by Anna - Thursday, April 5th, 2007

Another artist whose work is related to economy, business strategies, marketing tools and the relation of these to art, is Carey Young, a British artist living in the US. Pictures, texts and more info (a lot!) on her site: http://www.careyyoung.com/

she worked, for example on a group show in Massachusetts in 2005 about art & business:

Trade Show

In the 21st century, it is no surprise for visitors to contemporary art museums to find plenty of popular culture objects in works of art, a practice dating back to Marcel Duchamp’s “Readymades”. More recently, not only non-traditional art objects but non-traditional art activities — business practices such as network marketing, advertising, and motivational speaking — have found their way into art spaces. Trade Show highlights some of the most interesting and provocative of these practices.
