Mobile Information Stand For Moneyback Products (1999) is a major work by Matthieu Laurette, part of a research project on moneyback products. Originally conceived as a temporary information stand for the ICA-Institute of Contemporary Arts (London) lobby, during the Crash! Corporatism and Complicity (1999) exhibition, this work, never shown in France, was extensively presented abroad, including at the Palazzo delle Papesse, Sienna, at the Scottdale Museum of Contemporary Art, Phoenix, at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, New York, and at the Art Gallery in Hamilton, Canada. The installation gathers a series of tools and typical forms of Matthieu Laurette's work during the 90ies
