SPRING/BREAK Art Show 2018
BRETT WALLACE : AMAZING INDUSTRIES
March 6 – 12, 2018
AMAZING INDUSTRIES explores the archetype of a mega-corporation encroaching on our daily lives, bringing ideologies and promises of new utopian futures. This exhibition explores the Amazon business model and turns it inside out to reveal its hidden pockets of alienation and strangeness as a signifier of the future of work. The exhibition voices a concern about the precarity and inequality of late capitalism.
