Zachary Formwalt attempts in his films and photos to capture the imperceptible changes in society that impact deeply on everyone’s lives. The film, (In Place of Capital) features the building for currency exchange in London, a solid structure with Greek columns and ancient gods, with nothing to indicate the economic upheaval (collapses and bubbles) that have taken place since it was built in 1844. As a reference, a paperback edition of Karl Marx’s Capital is included. Shown at Stedelijik Museum in Amsterdam, represented at D ? T Gallery, Brussels.
