Tuesday, March 22, 2016 - 18:30 - White Cube Bermondsey

In collaboration with White Cube, the 2015-16 IESA talks programme, now in its fourth year, will focus on current trends and changes in the art world.

The second discussion aims to address the role of the artist today, assessing the evolution of their practice and how they relate to the market. Contemporary artists are both commercially savvy and market aware, with some making the key decisions in terms of how and when their work is sold.  In recent years, we have seen artists choosing to consign directly to auction houses or sell their work via social media platforms.

The panel will also consider the process through which artists create value for their work, the influencing factors and how they choose to go about this.
