Ep 10. How to go from selling your art for almost nothing to selling it for millions

'My child could've painted that!' is a phrase you hear from time to time in regards to art that at first glance seem too simple or too weird. But don't dismiss Cy Twombly too quickly. In my view he's an incredibly inspiring artist. One that takes time to understand perhaps but once you do, you'll love. Or at least this video will help you understand how Twombly, but just changing his visual language ever so slightly, managed to turn himself from New York art -world outsider, to celebrated superstar artist. With his art shifting from not selling at all, to selling for tens of millions of dollars.
