In addition to his thoughtful and thorough approach to the subject, Careys candor and complete lack of cynicism and posturing makes this book a must-read for any emerging artist." —David A Ross, chair of MFA in Art Practice, School of Visual Arts, and former director of the Whitney Museum of American Art Long Description How todays artists survive, exhibit, and earn money--without selling out!
