Thursday 12 November The Economy of Art is the first in a new series of high-profile debates on visual artists in the 21st century organised by DACS (Design and Artists Copyright Society) in partnership with c&binet and the A Foundation.  What value does art have financially, socially and culturally? How can we measure the intangible benefits of the visual arts in financial terms? Chaired by Alan Yentob, a distinguished panel of artists, economists and commentators will explore the value of the visual arts to the economy and society at a time when the value of traditional economic sectors are being seriously challenged.

Her practice encompasses installation, video, photography, performance and writing. Paul Graham is a UK-born, New York-based artist photographer whose work uses and abuses the classic genres of photography to map a cultural and social topography. Alan Freeman works for GLA Economics, the Mayor of London’s Economics unit, where he leads the unit’s work on cultural economics and city comparisons. Michael Landy is a London-born artist best known for the performance piece-cum-installation, (2001), in which he destroyed all of his possessions.
