But don’t worry because there are other jobs in the world of art that you can pursue. One possible career option is to become an art dealer.

An art dealer works on behalf of artists to help them sell works to museums and galleries around the world. To be successful at this profession, it requires a well-rounded skill set.

These trends will certainly change over the course of your career.
