"CURRENTCY" IS A GRAPHIC PRODUCTION BY LONGTIME COLLABORATORS DANIEL WOLFF AND ROBERT TAPLIN. AS WITH THEIR "NINE VIEWS OF NEW HAVEN" WHICH DEBUTED ON THE STREETS OF NEW HAVEN ALMOST FIFTY YEARS AGO, WOLFF HAS WRITTEN A POEM IN TEN VERSES AND TAPLIN HAS RESPONDED WITH TEN IMAGES. PRINTED IN THE FORMAT OF A ONE DOLLAR BILL THE SERIES EXPLORES THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MONEY AND PLACE, SPECIFICALLY THE ESTUARIES OF LONG ISLAND SOUND.
"CURRENTCY" IS DISPLAYED IN TWO FORMATS; A SET OF ENLARGED VERSIONS OF THE TWENTY SHEETS PINNED TO THE WALL AND AS A "COUPON BOOK" WITH THE POEM AND IMAGE ON OPPOSITE SIDES OF THE DOLLAR BILL. ADDITIONALLY, A SET OF EIGHT OF TAPLIN'S WALL RELIEFS TITLED "RECREATION & REBELLION" WILL BE INSTALLED ON THE OPPOSITE WALL FROM "CURRENTCY."
