As Good As Gold
NZ$500.00
Apple’s art provokes and confronts the contradictions in our culture’s view of the relation between art and money… it is never just for sale, but proposes a relationship which commits both parties to make something of the transaction, because you never buy just an Apple but must buy into his system.
—Wystan Curnow
