    From the publisher (translated):

    What happens to the economy when it is thought, invented and dreamed by artists? It is not well known, but many artists, from the end of the 19th century to the present day, have been economists for a time, going so far as to write treatises whose stated ambition was to renew the discipline from top to bottom.

    Whether they were trained in economics at university, built their theoretical conception of art in dialogue with economists, or elaborated a theoretical system in their own right, these artists give us a rich and singular vision, both of the economic thought of their time and of current issues. Value, work, money and capitalism – so many themes scrutinized and revisited by these texts, of which the present work proposes to make the anthology.

    Format: 156×240 mm. Pages: 240.
