_____ As Money is a series of online auctions inviting public participation. For the project's tenth installment, Science is currently for sale, in its entirety, on eBay. Bidding begins at $0.99 USD. Auction closes at 16:30PDT Sunday April 14th, 2013. Winning bidder receives a signed, archival certificate of ownership.

In 2009 there were no bids for Culture. Education sold for $115.

## Tendered Currency: new work by Shane Mecklenburger

Dates:
Sat Apr 14, 2012 19:00 - Sat May 12, 2012

Location:
Dallas, Texas
United States of America

Tendered Currency, new work by Shane Mecklenburger, will open at The Reading Room on Saturday, April 14 from 7 to 9 pm with a reception for the artist followed by a reading on Sunday, April 15 at 4 pm. The exhibition will continue through May 12.
The Reading Room is a project space dedicated to the intersection of visual and text based culture located at 3715 Parry Avenue, Dallas. For further information Karen Weiner KERXW@aol.com or www.thereadingroom-dallas.blogspot.com
Mecklenburger's work investigates American culture and various market functions and transactions, "our internal struggles and contradictions, our national self-perception and the way we are perceived, valued and devalued". TRR will feature video, sculpture, prints and a live eBay auction. During an election year and while the Dallas Arts Fair is in progress, Mecklenburger will show how he sold The Future on eBay and made a diamond from gunpowder.
An intermedia artist working between installation, media art and performance, Mecklenburger holds an MFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and is currently Assistant Professor of Art & Technology at The Ohio State University Department of Art. His work has exhibited at Hoxton Gallery/London, The Studio for Electro-Instrumental Music/Amsterdam, Ubersee Museum/Bremen, Centro Cultural Paso del Norte/Juarez, The El Paso Museum of Art and Dallas Museum of Art.
