Abstract

Many artists support socialistic ideas about society opposing free market economy and entrepreneurship. However, artists themselves act as entrepreneurs when they offer their works to the art market or attempt to generate public attention in general. Thus, following Schumpeter’s model of the dynamic entrepreneur, artists are innovators. Reasons for many artists’ attitude towards free market economy can be found in a lack of selection mechanisms in art, in an ex ante selection of artists and the philosophical concept of „l’art pour l’art“.
