Robert Hughes vs the Collector
Nov 15th, 2009 by max
I came across this video on Youtube the other day. For all those interested in art and the direction things are going – its worth a look. I’ve seen quite a few documentaries lately on the ‘art world’ and it seems that some very significant changes are taking place; namely a bursting of the ‘bubble’ and with it an exposure of, not only corruption, but a naked emperor. My guess is that its all over red rover for the big boys – the collectors and corrupt artists. They had better just concentrate on keeping themselves out of jail for now. It seems the proverbial helium tank is out of gas and the emperor might start wearing more fitting attire from now on.
Its easy to see that if artistic integrity was incorporated into the price of art we would see a lot of ‘ambitious’ art out there by ‘significant’ artists……… at throw away prices.
