TELEMARKET
“What might be more interesting is to consider how the very properties of spreadability that characterize digital objects can be turned to advantage to make them collectable as well. Paradoxically, an object whose image is very widely spread is a rare object, in the sense that few objects have their images spread widely. This can be exploited to create value in art objects that are not in the traditional sense rare and singular. The future of collecting may be less in owning the thing that nobody else has, and more in owning the thing that everybody else has.” —McKenzie Wark
Telemarket was a private Italian TV channel founded in 1982 which offered paintings and collectibles fine arts to the public.
We curated the exhibition and the exhibtion design.

Among its recent exhibitions and performances: 4th Istanbul Design Biennale @ARTER Istanbul, SITUATIONS/INFRASTRUCTURE @Fotomuseum Winterthur, transmediale 2018 @HKW Berlin, Radical Networks 2018 @SPEKTRUM Berlin, Alt-Age @Design Museum London, Borderline Festival 2018 @Onassis Cultural Center Athens.
