The exhibition curated by Bettina Allamoda ‚Shake your Money Maker‘ brings together the different channels of money making, artistic survival strategies, micro-economies and the symbolic promises of pop culture.
The starting points range from the 1961 blues classic ‚Shake your Money Maker‘ by Elmore James to the NGO pamphlet of the same name.
