Publisher's Synopsis
Examining the economics and mythologies of today's global artworld, using transdisciplinary strategies, this work unmasks the complex web of relationships that now exist between, high profile curators, collectors, museum trustees and corporate sponsors, and the historic and ongoing complicity between the art and money markets. It also looks at alternative models being deployed by curators and artists influenced by the 2008 global financial crisis and the international socio-political Occupy movement.
