We never seem to question why gold is gold. Imagine what would happen if 7 billion people started to question why we believe in gold. Gold has more adherents than any of the world’s religions. At times it seems our entire world is built on the belief of the power of a pretty, shiny metal. At this moment gold is priced at US$1,521.80 per ounce.
The 2011 Project is a work by San Francisco artist Tofu. Each day in 2011 he created a 4”x4” mixed media piece. The finished project was made up of 365 smaller mixed media pieces. In 2013 the individual pieces will be distributed to project supporters. The project also acted as sketchbook for new ideas, which continue to be incorporated into new work For more information please visit 2011project.com
