A Review on Art Review Power 100, 2023
7 January 2024
In Art Review's Power 100, the broader infrastructure of the art world is of interest, not critical analysis or interpretation. Questions such as why a certain form of art is produced and displayed? How is it displayed? And who decides what gets seen? It is one of the questions that is taken into consideration when choosing each of the names.
Forty people from all over the world anonymously select the names of the list and try to highlight the obscure corners of the professional art world and trace the changes and developments of the past twelve months. Furthermore, Art Review claims that the Power 100 is an attempt to depict the reality of an industry that preaches one thing and practices another.
According to critics, this type of lists and the overall selection of the "hottest" of an art event, or in this case a creative industry, leads to exclusivity, but Art Review points out in its defense that this list is actually a mirror. Against the world we live in.
Now, whether we agree with the ranking in the art world or not, this list is attractive to many art audiences and even affects the branding of art figures and organizations. Accordingly, we will take a look at this year's list to see which groups were the most influential in this industry.
