Does contemporary art command power and high prices because it is good, or because it is branded?
Join the next VN Residency Book Club session as we dive into a roundtable discussion on "The 12th million stuffed shark" by Don Thompson.
Don Thompson explores the money, lust, and self-aggrandizement of the art world in an attempt to determine what makes a particular work valuable while others are ignored. This book is the first to look at the economics and the marketing strategies that enable the modern art market to generate such astronomical prices.
Hosted by residents Leila Mafoud.Geng & Shaniece Parker.
