What is it about “art” that makes it different than any other human endeavor? I work, I receive the rewards for that work in the form of a salary, I use that salary to accumulate stuff, I die, and my heirs inherited my stuff. Since I’m dead, I get no more salary. Neither do my heirs!
Why does an artist continue to receive a salary after he/she’s dead? Why do his/her heirs get to continue to receive a salary when mine do not? It seems to me that the heirs should be entitled to the stuff already accumulated, but not to accumulate more stuff.
