With the art market in turmoil, the esteemed consultants Chen & Lampert have devised a quiz to test the effectiveness of their counsel. Art in America readers are invited to reflect on the impact of their advice over the years, from the satirical but earnest to the snide and scathing.
Respondents can share their thoughts via email or social media, offering a candid assessment of whether Chen & Lampert have been a boon or a bane. The questions range from seen or stalked? to god or troll?, with scores ranging from doomscrolling despair to heroic devotion.
The quiz offers a unique insight into the cultural impact of the consultancy, which has been a regular feature in Art in America since 2019. It prompts readers to consider the broader implications of their choices and the advice they follow, if any.
How will the quiz results shape the future of the consultancy? Will it become a beacon of ethical guidance or a laughing stock in the eyes of the art world? Only time will tell.
