About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 Art wants quality, while business wants profit. Great artists fight for quality expenditures, while successful businessmen fight against them.
#2 The Gift explains why artists don’t make money: because art is a gift, and anything that is not a gift in some sense is not art. In the market economy, profits start to demand giving less and charging more.
#3 The art of the genius is not rewarded by capitalism. The art of the entrepreneur is not appreciated by society. The art of the artisan is not appreciated by society, and yet it is the only way to make a living as an artist.
#4 The artist who sells his own creations must develop a more subjective feel for the two economies and his own rituals for keeping them apart and bringing them together. He must be able to disengage from the work and think of it as a commodity, while also remembering that it is worth more than just money.

Insights from Chapter 2
#1
The sketch describes the transition of the idealists who fight back against the business-heads to capitalists when they turn into businessmen. It is not that Henson was pessimistic or perverse, but he saw things from a different perspective.
#2
Jim Henson was a mogul who made two Muppet movies, the elaborate fantasy films The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth, classic TV specials like The Christmas Toy, The Tale of the Bunny Picnic, and A Muppet Family Christmas, and lush TV series like the Toronto-based Fraggle Rock.
#3
The 1960s opened up a rift in American culture that was never healed. Musicians slurred poetic about revolution, and old folks complained that children didn’t have respect for their parents.
#4
The artist allows himself to step outside the gift economy that is the primary commerce of his art and make some peace with the market. The artist who wishes neither to lose his gift nor to starve his belly reserves a protected gift-sphere in which the work is created.
#5
The first step to making money is to make peace with the market. There is a time to eschew the market, and there
