What's Wrong with Contemporary Art?

About What's Wrong with Contemporary Art?

Peter Timms asks why is contemporary art so in thrall to spruikers and promoters, and why do their extravagant claims so rarely match the reality? Why does the market have such power, and how does it dictate the art we are allowed to see? Why are art schools, museums and the media apparently so eager to fall in line with commercial expectations?
