A short text on the possibility of creating an economy of equivalence, 2006

The title of this edition refers to Liam Gillick's eponymous exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo, Paris, and La Casa Encendida, Madrid, in 2005. Both the exhibitions and this work reference an ongoing text-based project that examines post-industrial developments in consensus-based European societies. In the form of a door, Liam Gillick’s edition manifests as a visual and conceptual reference to a key passage of the text: Former workers of a decommissioned Swedish car factory return to their former workplace to reorganize signage and information – an act of appropriation and transformation that gives rise to a new architecture of desire and rejection.
