"I think the art world... is a very small pond, and it's a very inbred pond. They rely on information from an elect elite sect of galleries, primarily in New York"

About this Quote

This quote by Thomas Kinkade recommends that the art globe is a tiny and special neighborhood. He suggests that the art globe is controlled by a select group of galleries, mostly located in New York. This recommends that the art globe is closed to everybody, which the point of views of a couple of powerful galleries are given extra weight than those of various other musicians and galleries. Kinkade's quote suggests that the art globe is not as varied or open as it could be, and that the opinions of a choose few are offered more relevance than those of the larger art community. This could be seen as an objection of the art world, as it suggests that it is not as open and available as it could be.
