Toronto, Canada: Nothing Else Press, 2014
16 x 11 x 3.5 cm (closed) 16 x 21.5 x 2 cm (open)
Edition of 47 signed and numbered copies
A continuation of the artist's many alcohol-themed projects (including bars for Nuit Blanche, the Venice Bienalle, etc., etc.) this eel-skin wallet contains virtually every possible event drink ticket currently in circulation. Buy one, and wherever you are the drinks are always on the house.
"My favourite? “Eel’s Wallet” by Dean Baldwin, an edition of 47 wallets stuffed full of drinks tickets, which bizarrely becomes some sort of “book” for which we have no name."
- AA Bronson, Time Out Magazine "Five Picks from the London Art Book Fair".
Baldwin Lew's debut exhibition at MKG127 opens today. Titled Not only is everything ours but also everyone else’s, the show runs until November 18th, 2023, with new interventions throughout the run.
