Beschreibung
MoneyNations was an exhibition, a webzine, a radio, a conference, a video archive, a printed publication, an infrastructure, a counterpublic, an ongoing dis- cussion, a transnational network of friends. Initiated by Marion von Osten (1963 - 2020) as curator at the Shedhalle Zurich, the project evolved from an urgency to act against the hegemonic forces of the West within the radically changing condition of post-Cold War Europe. MoneyNations addressed - and intervened in - the interrelatedness between racist border policies and media representations, exploitative economic relations, and identity-forming processes. The applied methods of critique and organizing, transversing between art, theory, and activism, are made accessible in this volume through images, correspondences, and other ephemera, revealing their political potential for the present.
