Abstract
In 1875, the English novelist Anthony Trollope published The Way We Live Now, his devastating look at the transfiguring effect of power during the industrial age. A little over one hundred and fifty years later, artists, curators, and writers continue to mine the real world in all its complexity, including the effects finance, industry, and desire have not only on artistic consciousness, but the viewer's understanding of what is being represented, and why.
