Artists Should Be Able To Become Famous Before They Die.
For
All These Famous Artists...van Gough.....picaso...all Became Famous And Earned Millions For Their Paintings After They Died. I Feel That All Art Lovers And Great Painters Should Be Remembered While They Are Still Alive. Agree?

 Absolutely YES!! Add to that composers. Why shouldn't they make their millions while they are alive? Footballers do, pop stars do, politicians do. Why not artists?

 I agree that totally sucks that a artist has to wait to die to be famous. But I know the offsprings love it.

 It would be nice if they could enjoy the rewards of their work during their lifetimes. But it is unlikely, as the death of the artist drives the values up simply because of the fact that the artist will be producing nothing more.

 It works like that because once the artist is dead, even if they were slightly know while living, everyone knows that there will be no more work done, and so all want to collect that work at that point.

 Why are today's artists so lazy? Artists have died for fame for centuries, so why should we give the new generation of poseurs a pass?

 If they are great or do something great but famous because they are artist, no way.

 I agree with Woman 1982 I also think that maybe the artists death is partially what brings want to the art forms.

 Depends on the individual artist,just like most things you have to earn your right to be recognized.it would be an unjust for the deceased artist who blew our minds with their art to have every person no matter what level of skill to be famous.then a lot of our artist who are well known wouldn't be if we put them in a sea of others depriving them of the chance to stand out and be recognized.
