Artist Shane Mecklenburger is auctioning Culture on eBay. _Culture_As_Money_ is the 4th in an ongoing series of eBay auctions. The Future sold in February for $23.50, and in July Love sold for $76. In October 2008 Wealth did not go to sale, as the winning bidder backed out.
An excerpt from the item description reads:
"… the seller has decided to exchange this item for market value. Of untold interest, value, and utility, it's defining feature is now, sadly, its exchange value. Perhaps at some later date the full value of this item will be more widely recognized and the seller might consider re-acquiring it. In this time thrifty pragmatism must prevail, and now this item must go."
The auction winner will receive a signed archival quality certificate of ownership. The document will certify possession of Culture, in its entirety. Bidding begins March 21 and ends March 31.
