Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 28)

- Posição 2004: Alexandre Ferreira.
- Right. He did one funny piece that was a small wooden box with loads of fake money. I can't recall if it was Monopoly money. I think it looked like miniature brazilian money. Maybe I'm an absent-minded patron, but I think the main thing was showing people the money at a high art exhibition, you know? Like Andy Warhol is dead for years now, and people still can't face the fact that art is about money, too, because it is about every single bit of real life and the fantasies that go with it! I think he was just reminding all of us that we are material people in a material planet. For my money, that's a fine piece of art!
