'The sway of transnational markets over contemporary culture has transformed art's environment, blurring the previously discrete realms of price and value, capital and creativity. Uncovering the origins of these phenomena in earlier epochs, this anthology surveys the relations between art, value, and price; the evolution and influence of patronage; the institutions and networks of the art world; and the diversity of artistic practices that either criticize or embrace contemporary market conditions.' - from back cover.
