LINEA: Katie Holten and Mariateresa Sartori Curated by Kathy Battista April 27 – May 31, 2014 Opening Reception: Sunday, April 27, 6-9 pm Public walk with the artists: Thursday, May 1, 4pm BOSI Contemporary is pleased to announce Linea, an exhibition of new work by Katie Holten and Mariateresa Sartori curated by Kathy Battista. The exhibition will consider the potential of drawing through works on paper, canvas, and cardboard, as well as video, found objects, and a series of walks. The two artists were chosen for their investigations into drawing as an expanded field.

Drawing is the basis of their work – as an act of mark making, a tool for mapping presence and a device for tracing actions. Katie Holten’s Constellations are a series of new white-on-black drawings that resemble aggregations of stars. Mariateresa Sartori’s double channel video The Drawers shows her students drawing, their eyes looking at the camera, darting to the pages below, and back again. Welcome to the Community Exchange System. Occupying the Money System: Enric Duran introduces Fair.Coop | P2P Foundation. “What was missing for us to start out on this path was a monetary initiative present in these markets which, instead of relying on human competition to retain the greatest value, would be based on human cooperation as equals, creating value for all.

With the arrival of Fair.Coop, faircoin has become the cryptocurrency focused on the social cooperation that was missing. Enric Duran initially approached us during the late spring. He’d read Michel Bauwens’ policy paper for Transitioning to a Common Based Society and said that he was interested in collaborating with the P2P Foundation on a number of projects. When we asked for his impressions on Michel’s policy paper, he replied, “Yeah, we’re already doing half of what you describe in the paper at the CIC (Catalan Integral Cooperative)…now we want to do the other half”.

It is this brash, hands-on attitude that I admire so much about Enric Duran. Back to Duran and Fair.Coop. By Enric Duran This means: Consider traditional capitalism. Monnaies locales complémentaires | Le réseau des MLC.
