My "Other" answer is that I DO buy independent art and never the prefab industrial stuff. I'm a minimalist so I don't own much but everything was created by someone, usually someone I know. There's no answer for this in the poll!

Nice piece. Thanks for the mention too. I suppose this is true of other things outside just art as well. People need to fight back and buy off each other.

Thanks man, of course! I didn’t want to go off on tangents, we could say the same for shopping on Amazon for example…

Many, many excellent points very well made! And links to fantastic art, to boot. Brilliant!

I answered 'other', because I like to visit artists' open studios to drool (metaphorically) over their work, and I'll sometimes buy a print. Most originals are beyond my reach, but well within my boundaries of deep appreciation.
