Description
The art avengers...took on toxic debt culture – and won the GuardianThese artists want to blow up the whole financial system The New York TimesMeet the Bonnie and Clyde of bad debt!When art meets finance, 'The Big Bang' takes on a whole new meaning.
This is brilliant performative protest. Kate Raworth, author of Doughnut EconomicsBank Job is a white-knuckle ride into the dark heart of the global financial system.
Artist and filmmaker duo Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn discover that behind the opaque language of loans and the defunct diagrams of money and debt is a system flawed by design and ripe for hacking.
They assemble a team and bring a community together by printing their own money in a disused bank in East London, in order to buy up and abolish local debt.
Part daring tale, part personal memoir and part economic education, this book is perfect for fans of Grace Blakely and David Graeber.
Bank Job shows how the financial system can be changed to meet the needs of the many, not just the few one bank job at a time.
