Clash of Art & Commerce
This is a video produced for fun at the Ravenswood Artwalk in Chicago. The idea was to demonstrate the clash or maybe the merger of art and commerce. I asked a number random artists who I encountered to “Show me their business card”. As the author of “Turn Your Business Card Into Business” I thought it would be interesting to see how artists as entrepreneurs use business cards to promote the entrepreneurial aspect of their artistic activities. It’s also interesting because you can say that business cards are a visual medium so it is interesting to see how visual artists choose to represent themselves on these small “canvases.”
