It’s the Political Economy, Stupid Book Launch at Ashkal Alwan

Ashkal Alwan is hosting the book launch of editor Gregory Sholette’s “It’s the Political Economy, Stupid”. The event will include a book signing with the editor and a presentation.

“It’s the Political Economy, Stupid” combines analytical and theoretical responses from internationally acclaimed artists and thinkers including Slavoj Zizek, David Graeber, Judith Butler, John Roberts, and Brian Holmes, Julia Brian-Wilson, Liz Park, Thom Donovan, among others.

The book was designed by artist and activist, Noel Douglas, using visual themes based on graphics derived from Goldman Sachs online stock market pages and features images from the exhibition of the same name now on view in Pori, Finland.
