"To the super rich the art world is an easily manipulatable unregulated commodities market. There seems to be very little interest in patronage of art that will not produce financial gains on investment. The art market is a world of loosely joined casual cartels elevating glitzy junk for profit. Patronage of an artist for art’s sake without regard for profits is missing from the art world at present."

"Proust viewed involuntary memory as containing the "essence of the past", claiming that it was lacking from voluntary memory. In his novel, he describes an incident where he was eating tea soaked cake, and a childhood memory of eating tea soaked cake with his aunt was "revealed" to him.[1] From this memory, he then proceeded to be reminded of the childhood home he was in, and even the town itself. This becomes a theme throughout In Search of Lost Time, with sensations remind Proust of previous experiences. He dubbed these Involuntary memories."
