[Reader-list] commercialisation of fine arts in india

[Prayas Abhinav]

Ok, I am not sure if I am not confusing The Arts Trust with being the
same as the body which IE mentioned, but here is the link:
http://www.theartstrust.com/investmentinart.aspx and the home
http://www.theartstrust.com.

Yes, to me it seems interesting how aesthetic decisions, styles /
schools get denominations in the art market and take a position in the
heirarchy. In the above links notice how the art school / full-time /
part-time nature of the artist's practise apparently affects the value
of his or her work.

And this entire scenario seems to be parallel and disconnected from
the process of art-making.

Would like to read more,
