However, I feel that as I am studying illustration I should probably look at commercial art as well as Fine art. This would work with my quote as it refers to ‘the arts’ in general lacking status. But this means that my question will become more complex. Do I look at them together i.e. ‘Does the artist, weather they be a commercial or a fine artist exhibit any visible signs of status in today’s society?’ or do I look at them separately?
I think that it would perhaps work better if I looked them separately as all of the texts that I have read looks at them as two polar opposites where status is concerned. My vague question then for my triangulation is going to be: 'Which art form, Commercial Art or Fine Art has a greater sense of status in contemporary society?'
… The only problem is that most of my texts only talk about Fine Art!
