giving as a problem
Exhibition : 29/11/13 to 24/01/14, Fridays 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m
The recipients have the problem of not being able to use the gift. The givers see giving as a problem. You have everything in industrialized nations. What does “gift” mean then? What are we giving today? The market produces one every year unsustainable amount of things. A wasteful amount of energy and material is expended in their manufacture, Promotion and even for their recycling, their destruction, storage from the store to our cellars.
