Both Jennifer Dalton’s and William Powhida’s individual art practices have questioned artists’ relationships to the art market and larger culture for many years. They first collaborated in 2008 during the financial crisis, and developed the discussion-as-art-exhibition #Class and its successor art fair iteration #Rank in 2010 to address problems of access, hierarchies and power imbalances. In 2017 with the support of More Art they presented Month2Month, a month-long series of public performances and discussions on the topic of housing affordability that took place during short-term residencies in private apartments. At Zero Art Fair, the works are offered to visitors free of charge, with ownership transferring to the new collector via a signed contract over a 5 year period and the artist retaining rights regarding the value of the work. Both Dalton and Powhida’s individual artworks and their collaborations have often engaged in institutional critique; with Zero Art Fair they have created something new that addresses some of the issues they’ve critiqued.
