The Price of Art or There is No Santa Claus

"Since I started my career as a visual artist, I have continually been making art on 'what it means to be an artist'. Because of my own prolonged austerity - no bailout in sight - I made this piece, which captures a ridiculously long and desperate attempt to sell. But in the process it also raises questions about how to put a price on art. With small alterations, all of those sentences have been found on the Internet - presumably posted by people, who equally desperately needed to sell."
