Students write a paper about the future development of the art market, focusing on one role that we discussed in class (roughly 3 pages). An example of a typical paper might be ?The future role of an art gallerist? or ?The future role of an auction house? or ?The future role of an artist?, etc. Students? papers will benefit from the guest lecture sessions, as well as making use of the theoretical knowledge and experience gained in class.
