A discussion with a fellow student made me think that everything in this day and age is dependent on money. People set a price for all objects. Market players are given a decisive role in determining artistic value, thus linking the art world with the market world. The Reading Circle group represented this connection between the market world and the art world. Although differently, it reminded me a bit of the Rietberg Museum in Zurich, where borrowed, donated but also stolen objects from colonized countries were auctioned off. Here, just as in such a performance of an exhibition opening presented by the Löwenbräu Group, both in the Rietberg Museum and in an art gallery, the objects or works of art are given more than just a cognitive value. This cognitive value is thus defined with a market value.

But who can define such a subjective value so generally?
