Interaction: Art for Sale...

SFGallery
One of the Galleries on Geary Street, San Francisco.

Tonight, after a few hours of painting, my painting buddy, Jenny and I went to downtown SF to look at some galleries. Several questions came to my mind....

What are these artists' goals when they paint?...to express or to market?


Do artists paint to please themselves or to please viewers with the mindset to sell?


So has many modern art become so commercial that it mutates into some form of prostitution?!

Or there are different streams of art to please different kind of people or to facilitate different people's life?

Or "commercial art" (no matter we regard it as a kind of art or not) could eventually serve as a kind of springboard for people to enter into the world of "genuine art" (or in any terms we could put it as)?
