“History of Refusals: Who Wants to Apply?”, developed by Ayşegül Yapar for the PASAJ Small Things Studio Residency, draws on an Italian propaganda pamphlet that parodies the 1950s Italian game show *Lascia o raddoppia* (Take It or Double It).

​

 

Presenting archival cases from art history in a game show format, the work uses a parodic tone to expose the workings of application mechanisms in the fields of culture and art.​
