Arts
In this episode, we take an in-depth look at the market and who benefits from those astronomic auction sales. But it isn't just artworks that keep the art market afloat. The dollars that we spend on art supplies, transporting artworks, the price of having a studio... All of these things get put back into the economy so that we can keep on creating. After looking at many different consumer and market reports going back to 2015, ABR explains where our money goes to support the arts. Public events and cultural events like music festivals, art auctions, and even buying paint at the store generates resources that people are able to live from. We also discuss the ownership of art today and who is collecting it, why someone collects art, and their reasons for becoming patrons of artists.
