<ANDRÉ LEVY & HASEGAWA YOSUKE>

Art. It is often referred as the one that cannot be priced. However, its price defines its value. Thereby, it is possible to say that money and art cannot be separated. The reason, why? It is because money has been as the standard for evaluating artworks for a long time. Also, artworks come from money, which is usually provided by patrons such as royal members, aristocrats, or riches. For example, if there were no patron who supported Leonardo da Vinci, there would be no Mona Lisa, the Last Supper, or other his great works.

Here, two artists who literally make money and art as one body. André Levy and Hasegawa Yosuke. Means, their medium of their works is ‘money’: coins and paper money.
