When an artist meets business…

…I thought my world is going to be doomed!
I didn’t know how to value my art.
How to promote and protect myself.
I had trouble understanding the structure of the art market.
My dreams have never left me, I was the one who is running away from them.
London, Sotheby’s and business opened my eyes to a world I never thought I will understand.
And I’m right, I really don’t.
How do I exactly put a surface value, or price, to an artwork.
I can’t.
I don’t even want to sell art for art’s sake.
I can only see the underlying value of its true beauty…
Call me naive for all you want but from now I want to stay true to my artistic nature and such.
I am an artist.
I love to paint, printmake, sculpt and sew.
I create objects for the sake of beauty.
Although taste may change but right now I think my works are beautiful.

i dislike spiders but i appreciate their artistic talent

deepbreathsanddeath:

Anthony Michael Simon doesn’t produce his own art, instead he lets spiders do the work for him.

About the work:

Chicago native Anthony Michael Simon first discovered the artistry of the silk-producing arachnids while trekking through a forest in Korea, where he is currently based, looking for a location for his next sculptural art installation. He came across a huge spiderweb and it somehow clicked in his mind that he could catch spiders and have them naturally spin their webs in his studio.

Wow, I wonder where this collection will go? Huge restitution issues lie within.

Look inside Adolf Hitler’s secret art collection unearthed in a Czech convent
During the Second World War Hitler moved some of his extensive art collection, rumoured to have contained more than 5,000 pieces, out of Germany to avoid damage from Allied bomb attacks.

Last week, 16 pieces resurfaced in a Czech convent and now they are being seen for the first time since Hitler bought them in the mid 1940s. (Photos: Petr Josek/Reuters)
