OURS: Democracy in the Age of Branding Exhibition Guide
On view at the Sheila C. Johnson Design Center at Parsons The New School for Design from October 15, 2008, to February 1, 2009, the exhibition OURS: Democracy in the Age of Branding was conceived as an interdisciplinary investigation of democracy positioned as a consumer brand. Including original commissions and works by Yael Bartana, Sam Durant, Liam Gillick, Aleksandra Mir, Carlos Motta, Trevor Paglen, The Yes Men, and many others, the exhibition was guest-curated by Carin Kuoni and Marisa Olson (web component) and accompanied by a newspaper-style exhibition guide designed by Project Projects. The guide contains introductory statements by the curators; a complete list of public programs associated with the exhibition and the Vera List Center’s 2008-09 annual theme, Branding Democracy; and information on artworks and participants.
The exhibition guide is currently available free of charge from the Vera List Center. For more information, email vlc@newschool.edu.
