Summary:
A RAND Corporation report issued recently suggests that the visual arts picture isn't as rosy as it first appears, despite record museum attendance, booming commercial popularity, soaring prices for artists work and well-publicized museum expansions.
Abstract:
The report, titled The Visual Arts: Meeting the Challenges of a New Era,ン looks beneath the surface and finds significant challenges facing the many parts of the complicated web of artists, institutions and patrons that make up the visual arts world.
The RAND report focuses on the fine visual arts. These are defined as art objects such as paintings, sculpture, photographs and some types of media art and performance art that are produced by professional visual artists, distributed in galleries and auction houses, and displayed in fine arts institutions, especially museums.
