The Bank of England Museum invites you to join with KesselsKramer London and a roll call of exciting artists to imagine the currency of the future. This exhibition lets artists, photographers, illustrators and designers imagine what money should become from their personal perspective.
Currency of the Future at the Bank of England Museum Money is changing so rapidly it’s hard to keep up. While money’s future is usually predicted by financial experts, it’s now time to ask what form it would take, from a more artistic standpoint. The Bank of England Museum invites you to join with KesselsKramer London and a roll call of exciting artists to imagine the currency of the future. Is it time-based? Is it a bartering system? Is it personal and what value does it have? Is it based on hugs? Let the art decide. Further, as part of the London Design Festival and the Bank of England Museum show, KesselsKramer will open a barter bank for one week only 16 - 21 September at their Shoreditch gallery, 32 Charlotte Road, London EC2A 3PB – for details see www.shoreditchdesigntriangle.com. The KesselsKramer Barter Bank is an interactive installation where we invite participants to make an exchange of art which is produced in the exhibition space, or online. Whose art will you get and who will get yours? Let the algorithm decide. The exhibition raises questions about the value of art, the idea of currency and its evolving nature. These London Design Festival shows are part of Bank of England Museum’s wider exhibition examining the Future of Money.
