Using a wealth of data collected in Israel, this study depicts a
complete system in which art is created and evaluated - the scale
of Israeli society allowing for a comprehensive and detailed
description of all the agents involved in the production and
consumption of modern art. The author analyses the patterns of
social relations and behaviour created around two art worlds - the
world of abstract avant-garde art and the world of traditional
figurative painting. She argues that the two worlds differ
radically both in terms of the factors that affect the formation of
taste, the process of evaluation and the patterns of success in
them and in the ways in which these factors exert their influence.
