 lic.\nVisiting artist lecture sponsored by The Art Institute of Boston at 
 Lesley University and Massachusetts Cultural Council.\nParadoxycal forms o
 f exchange.\nWhat we need to do is rethink the logic of exchange itself. T
 hink about the gift\, for example\, within the concept of Bataille's dep&e
 acute\;nse or potlatch in which wealth manifests itself by squandering its
 elf. I'm not convinced that art always values the rules of supply and dema
 nd. In these last few years\, I've freely given away around 60\,000 drawin
 gs and I continue to think that the more I make and give away\, the more t
 hey rise in value. - Cesare Pietroiusti\nCesare Pietroiusti was the Coordi
 nator of the Oreste projects\, 1997-2001 and cofounder of Nomads & Residen
 ts\, New York\, 2000. Currently\, he is a professor at the Laboratorio di 
 Arti Visive\, IUAV University\, Venice. Recent solo exhibitions include Pa
 radoxycal Economies\, Ikon Gallery\, Birmingham\, Artworks that Ideas can 
 Buy\, Wilkinson Gallery\, London. Recent group exhibitions include the 28t
 h Biennial of Graphic Arts\, Ljubljana\, 2nd International Biennale\, Athe
 ns\, Performa 07\, NYC\, and the 3rd Tirana Biennial\, Tirana.\nPhoto: Ser
