Interesting but i wish there was more depth to it. From the article: >there remains a vital commercial subsphere in the artworld The above is offered in opposition to the para-academic side of the art world. However, that sentence does a lot of heavy lifting. There are well known issues with money laundering in the art world, tax evasion, speculation etc... Given that the commercial side of art may notbe a proper market, i am not sure that it is vital in the sense of bringing vitality to the art world.

Money laundering, tax evasion and speculation are parts of normal market life; their existence does not challenge the vitality of the commercial sphere. This vitality arises from the constant need for novelty that (this kind of) market structure introduces.

The perception is that this is a large part of what constitutes the art market.
