Chapter 5 Mechanic, Genuis and Artist "Rather than becoming a fully-fledged capitalist entrepreneur or submitting to the new regime of work as a wage labourer, the artist was first formed as an unprecedented category of producers, in the style of a bohemian – a free spirit, a genius, an expressive personality, an unbiddable and incalculable pleasure seeker.”（p.145)
- Dave Beech在投身学术之前其实是位艺术家，也是很牛逼了，作品在伊斯坦布尔和利物浦双年展展出过。现在是伦艺的Reader。
关于这本书，Art and Labour: On the Hostility to Handicraft, Aesthetic Labour and the Politics of Work in Art， 标题说的很清楚了，艺术劳动是如何从手工艺分离出来的，艺术世界本身存在哪样的劳工政治？尤其难能可贵的是Beech对马派女性主义思潮的肯定与运用。
