The appeal of art is the artist. Unless computers gain sentience they cannot replace the humanity and ego of artists.

Ever wondered why artists have to show up at gallery parties to sell their stuff?

To some. To others, the artistic object is all that all that matters.

No, the appeal of the artist is the artist. The art does offer a means to connect with the artist. It does not follow that the art may not offer its own appeal besides.

That must be why every piece of painting is signed. Artists are selling a brand- Rembrandt already understood that 400 years ago.

The only signature and branding for a artist when they solicit commissions and clients for future work than for selling completed paintings (unless their dead)
