Art History Essay 
- Art Market in contemporary time.

https://www.insidehook.com/daily_brief/art/the-alarming-state-of-the-contemporary-art-market

This essay comes at a time when many observers of the art world have taken to questioning certain long-held beliefs about it. In a 2018 essay titled “How Does the Art World Live With Itself?” New York art critic Jerry Saltz took aim at several art world tenets. “I used to believe the art world was at war with itself, that money was fighting art and vice versa,” Saltz wrote. “But I’ve been living in my own ambivalence about things for a decade now, or more, and I’m starting to think it’s not a war but a new equilibrium state, defined by that ambivalence.”

Why people like Jeff Knoons (those celebrity artist able to sell and earn tons of money)? 
Has the perception of art changed?
