A deeply researched warning about how the digital economy threatens artists' lives and work--the music, writing, and visual art that sustain our souls and societies--from an award-winning essayist and critic

There are two stories you hear about earning a living as an artist in the digital age. One comes from Silicon Valley. There's never been a better time to be an artist, it goes. If you've got a laptop, you've got a recording studio. If you've got an iPhone, you've got a movie camera. And if production is cheap, distribution is free: it's called the Internet. Everyone's an artist; just tap your creativity and put your stuff out there.

The other comes from artists themselves. Sure, it goes, you can put your stuff out there, but who's going to pay you for it? Everyone is not an artist. Making art takes years of dedication, and that requires a means of support. If things don't change, a lot of art will cease to be sustainable.

So which account is true? Since people are still making a living as artists today, how are they managing to do it? William Deresiewicz, a leading critic of the arts and of contemporary culture, set out to answer those questions. Based on interviews with artists of all kinds, The Death of the Artist argues that we are in the midst of an epochal transformation. If artists were artisans in the Renaissance, bohemians in the nineteenth century, and professionals in the twentieth, a new paradigm is emerging in the digital age, one that is changing our fundamental ideas about the nature of art and the role of the artist in society.

A new favorite sunscreen to add to my arsenal
I've been using the Neutrogena Clear Body SPF 50 Sunscreen Spray for a couple weeks now. I bought it after reading lots of positive reviews online, and it definitely is as good as people say. The spray is very lightweight and non-greasy, which is perfect for someone like me with oily, acne-prone skin. It dries in seconds and leaves a matte finish with no white residue or sticky feel. It seems to be as non-comedogenic, as it claims, my pores have stayed clear even after long days with this sunscreen on my face and body. I’ve used it on long sunny days doing landscaping and gardening work in my yard and, other than a small patch that I missed, I didn't get pink at all. I don’t have to worry about it coming off when I get a bit too sweaty. Overall, this sunscreen spray is super easy to apply and noticeably effective. It’s become a key part of my morning routine, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for an effective sunscreen that doesn’t clog the pores.

Excellent choice!
I really like this Neutrogena Clear Body sunscreen. I have very fair skin that burns easily. Good sunscreen is a must, and I have tried dozens of them. To date, this is my favorite one. For an SPF50, it goes on very light, dries quickly, and has only a mild scent. It has been doing a good job protecting my delicate skin from the burning sun rays.

Great everyday sunscreen light, non-greasy, and easy to use
I recently tried the Neutrogena Clear Body SPF 50 Sunscreen Spray and it’s become my go-to for outdoor work and weekend hikes. The spray format is convenient and quick to apply, even over arms and legs, and it dries down fast without leaving a sticky or greasy film. The SPF 50 protection feels solid — I spent a full afternoon outside and didn’t get sunburned. My only small gripe: you need to spray generously and evenly (and sometimes reapply) to make sure you get full coverage — a light mist doesn’t cut it. Otherwise, it’s a reliable, easy-to-use sunscreen for daily or outdoor use.
