Have you ever wondered why some people sacrifice everything for art - something with "little obvious practical value"? This question launched journalist Bianca Bosker on an extraordinary adventure into the secretive art world, transforming not just her understanding of art, but her entire perception of reality. What began as curiosity about why artists described making art as essential as "life or fucking death" became a journey that fundamentally altered how she experienced the world around her. Through immersive experiences - working in galleries, guarding museum pieces, and assisting renowned artists - Bosker discovered that art isn't just something to be understood intellectually. It's a powerful tool for experiencing a richer, more vibrant existence in a culture where visual literacy has never been more crucial, yet traditional art institutions struggle to remain relevant. My entry into New York's exclusive art scene began when Jack Barrett, owner of a small but respected Brooklyn gallery, took me under his wing despite my self-confessed status as a "normie philistine." Located above hair braiding salons in gentrifying downtown Brooklyn, Jack's gallery featured bewildering works like animatronic self-bashing drum sets and wearable shrines made of antlers and marshmallows. As I stared blankly at a gold-and-black wall drawing, my mind remained empty - exactly the type of art I desperately wanted to comprehend but couldn't.
