Exploring the historical divide between 'popular' and 'serious' art, this book delves into the implications of this separation over nearly two centuries. It raises critical questions about exclusivity in established arts, the financial dynamics involved, and the accessibility of art for underprivileged groups. The author also examines the rise of popular music in the late twentieth century and the allure of the art profession despite economic challenges. Additionally, the impact of the platform economy and diversity in contemporary art are discussed, making it relevant for cultural economists, academics, and artists alike.
