ebayaday is a month-long serial exhibit, using eBay as
venue, beginning 9 a.m. PST, Dec. 1, 2006.
Curated by Rebekah
Modrak, Aaron
Ahuvia and Zackery
Denfeld, ebayaday consists of 25
auctions (one debuts each day) in which the
entire eBay listing (item for sale, descriptive
text and imagery and placement within chosen
categories) is the artwork. Works presented
in the show exploit, redefine or underscore
eBay’s potential in the exchange of ideas,
objects and money.
The artists chosen
for the show received instructions for the day
and time to post their listing in a 7-day online
auction. The first of the 25 auctions begins
December 1st 2006 and the last auction ends
on January 1st, 2007.
This 31-day event of staggered auctions can
be viewed here at www.ebayaday.com.
ebayaday would not have been possible
without generous support from the University
of Michigan's School of Art & Design and
a Collaborative Summer Research Grant jointly
offered by the Institute for the Humanities
and the Rackham Graduate School. |
