L'art a-t-il une valeur ?

The November 2016 issue of artpress (n°438, pp. 73-75) features an article questioning the value of art. It references Georges Didi-Huberman's observation that in Roman times, the word 'image' referred to something unsellable, made without intention to sell. The article notes that the Bourse de Commerce in Paris is set to make way for François Pinault's collection, highlighting a shift in the perception of art's value from sacred to commodified.
