Bankspeak :
The Royal Exchange, City of London, 17 June 2009 - 19 June 2009.
Capitalists Anonymous meeting. Duration: 1-2pm daily.
In 2009 Andrea Mason and I inaugurated the self-help group Capitalists Anonymous. This version, titled Bankspeak, was established as a forum to enable people to come and confess their capitalist tendencies. Set up for bankers in the wake of the economic crash, C.A. was seen as a therapeutic intervention that provided ‘a supportive environment in which to share… stories of greed, excess consumption, shopping addiction and explore… fears or excitement about what’s next?’ For more information visit Capitalists Anonymous
This work part of a series of works that happened in the City of London. The event was called C.R.A.S.H – A Postcapitalist A-Z, commissioned by The Laboratory of Insurrectionary Imagination
