I'm not willing to believe the patronage model of contemporary art is any different than it was under the Medicis. Rich taste-makers like your stuff, you will do well as they prove they have more taste than each other. Rich taste-makers don't like your stuff, you will starve. The safety of buying a pedigreed piece is that you attach to the secondary market - you endorse the judgements of the taste-makers only when they're safe and settled.
