(5 of 13) THE ART MARKET IS LESS ETHICAL THAN THE STOCK MARKET; AMY CAPPELLAZZO

[HeatherLeBas]

Her statement about "the motivations for becoming a part of the art world" seems to outline a major issue to me... I think that if your are in the art business, whether you are an artist, curator, dealer, ect. It should be due to your devotion & love for art...

[Sopho333]

She is just spilling out shit rather than making a relevant arguement.

[rwordplay]

The woman doesn't seem to understand anything of physics or of art or of the art market, or she's very skilled at hiding what she knows. What's more, it's apparent she's knows little of rhetoric, and less of persuasive speech,which is to say she added nothing to this debate.

Physics , Aquirfers ??? You either do business ethically or you don`t.

OMG she's so a mega hotty - looks like feebie from Charmed!

I agree with what she is saying that both the artist and the auctioneer or agent have different ideas for doing what they do. The auctioneer and agent simply want to make money. My issue is the problem that this has created with museums. Watch Robert Hughes the "the mona lisa curse" by robert hughes its on youtube. The met director discusses how the unregulated market which people that dont know much about art have taken over. This has pused the met and other museums out of big decisions

I agree completely. She's simply not going there! Michael Hue-Williams instead said all what needed to be said.

i believe she's avoiding the motion. she argues around the periphery and lightly touches on the topic. the corellation she's drawing is a false logic, a fallacy.
