“…To address these entrenched systems, we likely need policy entrepreneurship (Heidelberg, 2019) to redesign funding systems (Wilkerson, 2012) with the same level of creativity one might associate with art making. We may see new systems of support for artists develop around digital marketplaces for nonfungible tokens (Franceschet & Read, 2020;van Haaften-Schick & Whitaker, 2022) and more solidarity in unionization of art workers and risk-pooling by artists participating in markets (Whitaker, 2021a;Whitaker & Grannemann, 2019). Yet lack of economic support remains a material limitation to who can have careers in the arts.…”

This chapter presents a broad interdisciplinary literature review linking artists’ economic precarity and need for but resistance to entrepreneurial skills, alongside colonial histories, structural racism, and hierarchies of taste in arts organizations. These themes are complemented empirically by engaging data from the Strategic National Arts Alumni Project (SNAAP) to demonstrate indicators of attrition and privilege of arts alumni relative to their participation in the arts workforce. Meaningfully different associations across racial/ethnic groups are uncovered, showing structural exclusion of Black arts alumni in particular, in addition to other intersectional dynamics. This chapter underscores the importance of addressing student debt, the potential of creative pedagogies across the curriculum, and the need for imaginative approaches to renewed public funding of art and artists.

“…Cloud computing technology optimizes the distribution of arithmetic power and the delivery of management systems, enabling seamless links between public and private platforms, while blockchain technology enables copyright protection and tracking, fostering the association of image works into image commodities. Besides, blockchain technology radically alters the risks of incomplete contracting and lowers transaction costs, making the Quixotic terms of the Artist's Contract newly actionable (van Haaften-Schick & Whitaker, 2022). VCG explored value-added business lines in digital asset management, combining the emerging technology family with its operational experience to develop a SaaS product, Visual Digital Asset Management (VDAM), which covers content acquisition, audit, publishing, sharing, and monetization in a closed-loop process that can be flexibly deployed in complex environments such as public, private, and hybrid clouds.…”

We review the technology-driven attribution of business models at different stages of the imagery stock industry and their intrinsic regularities. We take Visual China Group’s (VCG) business development over the past two decades as a timeline. This paper analyses the phenomenon by focusing on the emerging technology family represented by AI technology. It explores the theoretical origins, future outlook, and risk prediction based on experience. We try to induce the development of the industry from representative cases, on the one hand, highlighting the opportunities for efficiency leapfrogging due to the contribution of emerging technologies to productivity and, on the other hand, rethinking the challenges of business ethics, business models and governance mechanisms. This research proposed to implement research on digital governance mechanisms based on blockchain technology. It explored the production relations of the emerging media industry, which is based on the “governance of technology by technology”.
