Zusammenfassung: | Most artists earn very little. Nevertheless, there is no shortage of aspiring young artists. Do they give to the arts willingly or unknowingly? Governments and other institutions also give to the arts, to raise the low incomes. But their support is ineffective: subsidies only increase the artists' poverty. The economy of the arts is exceptional. Although the arts operate successfully in the marketplace, their natural affinity is with gift-giving, rather than with commercial exchange. People believe that artists are selflessly dedicated to art, that price does not reflect quality, and that the arts are free. But is it true? This unconventional multidisciplinary analysis explains the exceptional economy of the arts. Insightful illustrations from the practice of a visual artist support the analysis |

The Exceptional Economy of the Arts Hans Abbing Amsterdam Amsterdam University Press [2008] © 2002 1 online resource txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 19. Feb 2019) Most artists earn very little. Nevertheless, there is no shortage of aspiring young artists. Do they give to the arts willingly or unknowingly? Governments and other institutions also give to the arts, to raise the low incomes. But their support is ineffective: subsidies only increase the artists' poverty. The economy of the arts is exceptional. Although the arts operate successfully in the marketplace, their natural affinity is with gift-giving, rather than with commercial exchange. People believe that artists are selflessly dedicated to art, that price does not reflect quality, and that the arts are free. But is it true? This unconventional multidisciplinary analysis explains the exceptional economy of the arts. Insightful illustrations from the practice of a visual artist support the analysis In English Artists Economic conditions Kunstökonomie (DE-588)4315813-4 gnd rswk-swf Kunstförderung (DE-588)4033639-6 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftliche Lage (DE-588)4248362-1 gnd rswk-swf Sozialgeschichte (DE-588)4055772-8 gnd rswk-swf Kunstmarkt (DE-588)4120630-7 gnd rswk-swf Künstler (DE-588)4033423-5 gnd rswk-swf Kunsthandel (DE-588)4033647-5 gnd rswk-swf Kunstsoziologie (DE-588)4033673-6 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4113937-9 Hochschulschrift gnd-content 2\p (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content Künstler (DE-588)4033423-5 s Wirtschaftliche Lage (DE-588)4248362-1 s Kunstökonomie (DE-588)4315813-4 s Kunstsoziologie (DE-588)4033673-6 s Kunstförderung (DE-588)4033639-6 s Kunsthandel (DE-588)4033647-5 s 3\p DE-604 Sozialgeschichte (DE-588)4055772-8 s 4\p DE-604 Kunstmarkt (DE-588)4120630-7 s 5\p DE-604 https://doi.org/10.1515/9789048503650 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 5\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
