      Most high priced art is used for money laundering while entire productions fail at no fault of their own. So no, money is not a measure of an art’s worth

      no trying to be an ass here, but if you already know your answer (sales numbers), then why ask here? are you wondering where you could get salesnumbers by genre/ artform?

      The sales numbers are a pretty objective measure, actually.

      Not really. Depends what you sell. I’d much rather sell a single painting of Van Gogh than 10.000 books (which would be considered excellent numbers by many publishers) about the same Van Gogh.

          If you’re trying to sell art, it’s pretty fucking literal. Jesus!

          If you say so. You seem to be a literal expert.

          Alas, I don’t have any Jesus or whomever to add as an exclamation mark my reply. Probably because I’m not the religious kind and if I was I would certainly not use my god as a mere punctuation mark, woudl I? So, instead, allow me to punctuate my reply with a ‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

          Physical art. (Not digital.) What sells? What is truly appreciated?

          Pretty fucking literal, were you saying? Mmm, I reckon you’re fucking right. Good luck.
