Having a high paying, national or international client? Of course. I like BMW's new commercial that has the Kinetic Sculpture and credits the artist in the beginning... BRAVO!! And Audi is Bravo-ing art, showing it's support by allowing the Work Of Art to continue and increase in viewers and sponsorship. On Top Chef (culinary arts) Ziploc, Glad and many other companies have product placement and no one is yiping about the culinary creators being sell-outs! Please! I love when artists get PAID and PROMOTED and EXPOSED to the world!!! If an artist gets commissioned by a corporation isn’t that a success? Having a high paying, national or international client?

We didn't see every scrap of film they shot in the showroom so it is possible that brochures were looked at and them a choice made not to use them. One artist did make a collage with cars in it... I understand the importance of sponsorship but you don't have to be obligated to have the sponsor influence the art!!! It's TV and even on PBS you get an edited point of view but it's better than no reality artist show!
