With this pointed, provocative installation project, Steve Lambert poses a question that is too often buried in our public discourse: does capitalism really work? The artist has constructed an interactive, street-level billboard that allows citizens to reflect on their own lives and beliefs; one could call it an ideological scorecard, with tallies refreshed each day and hosts trained by Lambert himself to engage in conversation with participants.
