The exhibition project â??Alternative Economics, Alternative Societiesâ?? by Oliver Ressler focuses on diverse concepts and models for alternative economies and societies, which all share a rejection of the capitalist system of rule.

The book â??Alternative Economics, Alternative Societiesâ?? is a
collaborative effort of the artist and Wyspa Insitute of Art
(www.wyspa.art.pl), following the presentation in the â??Health and
Safetyâ?? exhibition at Wyspa Institute of Art, Gdansk, 2004 and shows the
current status of the ongoing project.
It includes an introduction by Aneta Szylak, the new essay â??Questions
from an Artist Who Speaks (and Reads, Writes, Thinks, and Acts)â?? /
â??Pytania od artysty który przemawia (a także czyta, pisze myÅ?li i
dziaÅ?a)â?? by Gregory Sholette, and the following texts, which are based
on transcriptions of video interviews that were carried out by Oliver
