1430 - 1730 [ British Summer Time ]

Capital is a project for Tate Modern by artists Neil Cummings and Marysia Lewandowska. It unfolds as a series of encounters between two iconic institutions, Tate and the Bank of England, and the economies they animate. The project is inaugurated with the issue of a gift - a limited edition print, distributed at Tate Modern and the Bank of England Museum, with an accompanying book published by Tate. The project also includes a series of seminars.

The third of these seminars looked at the concept of trust. Modern money has the ability to facilitate the mundane exchanges of daily life and connect globally with unimaginable force and complexity. All of this relies on trust, yet as critics of our economic system have pointed out, its effect is to destroy wider networks of trust.
