It is the right word, but I would add that not a wall of the museum, but in modern conditions is now more important than the presence, life paintings in the media space.

In the media space live ghosts pictures (unfortunately).

Artists, unlike, say, a railroad, or long-distance truck drivers, or employees of the Ministry of Finance, teachers, nurses, scavengers do not like strikes, so they have added or increased salary pension. They, unlike workers, do not delay for a few days of top management of the plant where he worked to avoid layoffs (I'm talking about Western Europe). But the taxes they pay, like all other citizens - and generally, no, not all: there are a number of citizens who do not pay taxes - international functionaries, for example.

The artist, unlike banks or insurance companies (many payments can not be carried in cash, many insurance kotnrakty are required), has been unable to get anyone to buy his work, the customer always does so solely at their request.

Galleries, artists paying regular monthly maintenance, maybe 1%, if not less. On what kind of salary you say?

Galleries do not feed the artists. Rather, it is fed by the artists gallery. Personally I have never heard of an artist whose gallery has a very young and immediately placed her on a salary. Before the fall in the gallery - if he was lucky - the artist is already a decent segment of its path, and he does it all alone. And if at some stage some sort of gallery invites him to cooperate, then she sees the possibility of obtaining this benefit. This is perfectly normal, but be proud of here, too, nothing gallerist.

No doubt, the artist - real - does not work in order to feed themselves. No doubt, he is working for themselves, peers and for eternity.

"Art is paving another path that leads to eternal life" - wrote Franz Marc - lucky me with the quote, just cook it on a plot

And another quote: "Inspiration is not for sale, but you can sell a manuscript, you know?

Work. Because it is the paintings of such artists and appear in museums, they are more expensive than others and bring gallerist maximum profit.

No. First - produce, then - the seller.

Ves'ma sporno. Muzeinaia kartina iz'iata iz oborota i nichego, nikomu (v finansovom smysle) ne prinosit.

Still, perhaps, ask first ... There is an order - a job. Over time, the artist became more free, a relatively independent, but its development was due to painting customers. This is a historical fact.
Certainly, there are exceptions, particularly in Russia, but in my opinion - only thanks to the Council of Deputies. Personally acquainted with the artist, the first does not sell his works. The only case of the sale was caused by his wife's illness and the need to improve the living conditions (and even then, not sold, and changed some of their work at the apartment, all the work gone in one hand).
You do not necessarily dB business and paid for in cash. He ideological mb (Payable polit.sily support), environment (society) (paid attention and status), etc.

Kak pokupatel 'mozet sprosit' o tovare, kotoryi on ne znaet? Vot zdes 'rol' marketinga absoliutna. Nado predstavit 'tovar pokupateliu, i razvit' rynok. V segodniashnem izobilii vsego, eto zadacha sloznaia.

Tak is kartinami - esli nikto ne znaet o suschestvovanii dannogo hudoznika, spros na ego kartiny=0.

Poetomu tovar otstupaet na zadnii plan, a informatsionnye sluzby zanimaiut dominantnuiu pozitsiiu.

Kstati, my medlenno peremeschaemsia v postindustrial'noe prostranstvo, tam eschio ne vsio opredeleno.
