SPARK: Ideas That Spread; Art That Monetizes

The glamorous tapestries of Flemish artist Pieter Coecke van Aelst were sought by the most discerning rulers in 16th-century Europe, from Henry VIII to the Hapsburgs and Medicis. As his ideas spread throughout his world through paintings and books, his creations became hot commodities. In this SPARK conversation, Julie Burstein talks with Seth Godin and Met curator Elizabeth A. H. Cleland about what it takes to be an artist and entrepreneur, in both the 16th and 21st centuries.
