They also can apply to receive an NEA grant to create works.

<<"publicly funded" exhibit generally means tax payer funds were used to pay curator, for performance space, promotion, etc. >> OK so if the Artist's work gains in value or it is sold as a result of this effort, you wouldn't call that funding the artist? Sounds like marketing to me.

They get paid for selling works and they get grants from non-profit foundations to pursue their work. Only emerging artists, as I understand it. BTW Ive always been a little suspect of the NEA emerging artist selection. It seems like, if the NEA promotes and artist, those that are with him initially can reap tremendous financial awards. The problem is I cant really prove this ever happened, because I havent been able to find a list of prior NEA emerging artists. It will be interesting to see if Schnabel or whoever was once an NEA grant recipient.... and who owns those early works.
