Buying fame
Through the years it has come to me that artists buy fame. I've seen overnight fame come from large awards like the Arts for the Parks awards. With a $150,000 advertisng budget anyone can become famous this year.
What I'm wondering now is how much fame can an artist keep up with? I think about many good established artists that I never see anymore. They clearly are past that stage in their careers where they need to spend the money. Awards, museum exposure, quality work and great galleries can also reduce the need to buy fame. Any thoughts?
