The Value of Art Article by Troy Brown https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42 Read, then reflect on the article. (Link): https://news.artnet.com/market/defining-the-value-of-art-27673 Make sure comments are at least 75 to 100 words. 1. Mr. Findley talks about commercial value of art, do you consider art's value extending beyond immediate commercial value, explain. 2. Do you agree with his statement, 'There is no intrinsic, objective value' explain your response. For example if someone famous painted a portrait of your grandmother and the work was going up for auction, would it have more than commercial value to you? The article gives insight into the field of Visual Arts as it relates to the Marketplace. en-us 2018-08-22 22:37:24 UTC 2026-01-29 19:41:21 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/279290501/019ad8ad9bec62742e6d647ae9ec4078/Rothco.jpg 1. Yes I believe the value of artwork extends beyond just commercial value. The commercial value of a piece of artwork would be how much the art would sell for at a minimum. For example, a piece of art that is being bid on has a starting value that is asks just to begin the bidding. All of the further bids on the art work would not be commercial, they would be based upon want and desire of the buyer. The art work could mean something to them personally because they relate to it, or it could be connected to something else that is expensive like a painting of a famous person. This would bring the personal value up for each individual person. Some art work people will not sell because it simply is to precious or meaningful to them, you could argue that there is no commercial value at all. mackenzis_badger https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/276234948 2. Yes and no. The art has to have a base value to be sold that does not take into account how much personal value it has for each individual. The amount of money you are willing to spend for a piece is never just commercial. The amount of money it costs to make the painting is generally not taken into account, but how much the art work means to them or how it makes them feel is very important. That value is not commercial because desire takes over and it is no longer just a painting it is a masterpiece and the value will always be increasing and never decreasing. ]]> 2018-08-29 14:23:56 UTC https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/276234948 tatiannajenellesmart https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/276715399 1.Yes, because a piece of artwork could cost more based on the time and supplies it took to create it. Also it could have more value on it based on the meaning and history of the artwork. 
2. Yes, I agree with his statement because anything can have value to it if a person believes that it is worth something to them, then maybe one day it will be worth a lot to someone else. But I will also say that art will have to have a objective value in order for someone to make a profit off of it.]]> 2018-08-30 18:50:52 UTC https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/276715399 gabriela_crudup https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/276732319 1. Yes! I truly believe that the value if ark work extends beyond the commercial value. if you think about it we are all born with talents. A artist has seen hours of their time trying to transfer a vision inside of their head to a canvas, which is not a easy job. secondly art supplies are not cheap. thirdly each piece of art is unique and holds is own value. 
2. Yes and No. It all depends on the artist. As a photographer I have some pictures that I don't mind if they sold, but I also have pictures that I will never sale because I felt a way taking the picture, or I felt like I have really captured a piece of history. ]]> 2018-08-30 19:39:27 UTC https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/276732319 JecheaKBriggs https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/277003366 1. I do believe that art's value extends beyond the commercial value. I feel as though it is hard to put a true value on art because it can represent different things for different people. Which makes it hard to define its value. 2. I do agree with Mr. Findley, The importance of art is deeper than its commercial value. In response to the example, of course, it would have a higher commercial value to me. A lot of emotions and expression goes into art so its value changes based on the person.

A commercial price is basically how much you could get the art for a minimum. Some people are willing to spend millions because possibly that piece of art holds value to them. abrown970 https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/277007972 2.) Yes and no it all depends on how the person views art not everybody see's are the way the artist does.]]> 2018-08-31 19:41:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tbrown130/pxglxcw1ua42/wish/277007972
