The creative economy of the United States is a headline-making beast of mythic proportions. With nearly a trillion dollars, or 4.3% of the nation’s gross domestic product dedicated to arts and culture, it is no surprise to find a rush of individuals looking to capitalize on opportunities in the fine arts. However, like the lost cities of gold and the fabled fountain of youth, the creative economy of the US is more story than substance when it comes to individual rewards of riches and notoriety.
Fine artists, when taken with the whole of the Creative Economy, make up 10% of the total “artist workforce,” or about 210,000-250,000 artists among the 2.1 million art jobs available within the 5.2 million jobs available in arts and culture. Forty thousand (14.4%) of those artists are working as artists while maintaining a separate primary career. More than half of fine artists specifically (53%) are self employed.
In this session we will take a look at artist data in the United States and how it applies to individual fine artists and their artist practice. Who is an artist and what is considered art in the contemporary market? Where do you fit among your fine art peers?
