Artlog moderates a panel discussing America’s Next Top Artist: Thankfully reality competition has yet to infiltrate the art world, but who will be the next great American artist. How is technology and the american media impacting artists and their ability to gain recognition? What role do the museums have in using technology and programming to promote up and coming artists to the mass audience? How is the economy impacting opportunities for emerging artists? Is the general American public interested in star artists? How do collectors find these Next Top Artists before they hit it big? Are institutions actively trying to establish so called star artists?

Panelists Include:

- Sara Friedlander, Specialist in the Post-War and Contemporary art department at Christie’s

- Dawn Chan, Writer/Critic Art Forum

- Victor Samra, Technology & Marketing MoMA

- Jen Bekman, "Hey Hot Shot":http://heyhotshot.com/ "20×200":http://20×200.com/, & "Jen Bekman Gallery":http://jenbekman.com/
