Answer:
To answer the question, one must define who the market is to the artist.
The fourth paragraph gives us a clue:
"...critics, dealers, gallery owners and museum curators whom they depend on for their livelihood."
Very clear isn't it?
So to the artist the market is made up of:
- Critics: an endorsement by a critic or a poisonous remark (if flipped) can give an artist the break they have been looking for;
- dealers: these category are more like brokers. Buying, selling and consulting on art works for a fee;
- owners of art works: These are direct 'consumers' for the artists products.
- museum curators: this category manage collections of works of art and artifacts in museums. They have sound knowledge of each art work and can also influence decisions during an auction by the museum.
Regardless of their dependence on the above categories of people, the text shows that the artist have a disdain for them.
A possible reason may be found in paragraph 5 :
<em>'In shredding “Girl With Balloon,” Banksy seems to be pointing to a central absurdity of his graffiti art being treated as fine art. When it appears on city streets, anyone can vandalize it; now that the same images are in galleries and auction houses, they must be handled with white gloves.'</em>
In simple terms, Banksy is saying that majority if not all artists don't have a complete say over how their work is valued. There is a system that decides this. And this lack of power or inability to insist on the true worth of their work is annoying.
Cheers!
Completely unrelated, but that is a great sentence, I want that painted as a quote on my wall.
Also, the punctiation seems right to me. But you might be able to use a ";" instead of a comma, im gonna check that real quick.
The sentence that has the correct subject- verb agreement is the following one: Neither the Western Hemisphere nor the Eastern Hemisphere are immune to flooding.
The verb "to be" can't be singular because the writer mentions the two hemispheres (the Western Hemisphere and the Eastern one). That is why the first option is the correct one.
Answer:
Type your paper on a computer and print it out on standard, white 8.5 x 11-inch paper.
Double-space the text of your paper and use a legible font (e.g. Times New Roman). Whatever font you choose, MLA recommends that the regular and italics type styles contrast enough that they are each distinct from one another. The font size should be 12 pt.
Leave only one space after periods or other punctuation marks (unless otherwise prompted by your instructor).
Set the margins of your document to 1 inch on all sides.
Indent the first line of each paragraph one half-inch from the left margin. MLA recommends that you use the “Tab” key as opposed to pushing the space bar five times.
Create a header that numbers all pages consecutively in the upper right-hand corner, one-half inch from the top and flush with the right margin. (Note: Your instructor may ask that you omit the number on your first page. Always follow your instructor's guidelines.)
Use italics throughout your essay to indicate the titles of longer works and, only when absolutely necessary, provide emphasis.
If you have any endnotes, include them on a separate page before your Works Cited page. Entitle the section Notes (centered, unformatted).
