The Human Face of Cryptoeconomies exhibition opens at Furtherfield Gallery in the heart of London’s Finsbury Park, as part of Furtherfield's Art Data Money programme.
This show presents artworks that reveal how we might produce, exchange and value things differently in the age of the blockchain.
Featuring Émilie Brout and Maxime Marion, Shu Lea Cheang, Sarah T Gold, Jennifer Lyn Morone, Rob Myers, The Museum of Contemporary Commodities (MoCC) and the London School of Financial Arts.
Appealing to our curiosity, emotion and irrationality, international artists seize emerging technologies, mass behaviours and p2p concepts to create artworks that reveal ideas for a radically transformed artistic, economic and social future.
Also, as part of Art Data Money, join us for data and finance labs at Furtherfield Commons.

The Human Face of Cryptoeconomies is part of Art Data Money, Furtherfield's new programme of art shows, labs and debates that invites people to discover new ways for cryptocurrencies and big data to benefit us all. It responds to the increasing polarisation of wealth and opportunity, aiming to build a set of actions to build resilience and sustain Furtherfield's communities, platforms and economies.
