This classic sociological examination of art as collective action explores the cooperative network of suppliers, performers, dealers, critics, and consumers who - along with the artist - "produce" a work of art. Howard S. Becker looks at the conventions essential to this operation and, prospectively, at the extent to which art is shaped by this collective activity. The book is thoroughly illustrated and updated with a new dialogue between Becker and eminent French sociologist Alain Pessin about the extended social system in which art is created, and with a new preface in which the author talks about his own process in creating this influential work.

As timely as ever. * The Nation * "An interesting, suggestive overview of just how art worlds do function." * Kirkus Reviews * "Unusual and excellent. . . . Discusses everything from aesthetics, criticism, censorship, artistic mavericks, and professionalism to authenticity, conformity, commercial distribution, and changes in art. . . . Fascinating." * Christian Science Monitor * "The clearest, most articulate, elegant, and coherent sociology of art to appear in a long time." * American Journal of Sociology * "This is an important book, very well written, beautifully produced, and bound to be much read and talked about in the world of sociology." * Social Forces *
