Theorist, Richard Florist is back to argue how to keep America's Artists from Starving
TIME MAGAZINE
By Lilly Rothman
As we hit the tenth anniversary of his polarizing 2002 book "The Rise of the Creative Class", the controversial urban theorist Richard Florida has a plan to keep the artists from starving. An anniversary edition of the book, which will be released on June 26, includes several new chapters, with revised data (and anecdotes) throughout. The revised edition of the book also includes his prophecy about the future of the entertainment industry—and, between the lines, his prescription to keep artists from starving. That’s where the collector comes in: more than ever, entertainment-industry workers have to be creative; at the same time, art isn’t enough. [link]
