Friday Lecture with T'ai Smith

In this series of Friday Lectures we delve into the creation of value, owning and the flows of capital, and take you further into alternative economic systems in a time when culture is being economized and the economy is culturalized.

28 October: T'ai Smith, associate professor of Art History, Visual Art & Theory at University of British Columbia, Vancouver, considers ways to reconfigure the ties between work and desire in the aftermath of fashion capitalism. On the libidinal economy of Warhol's factory model and the persistent problem with work.
