When thinking about distribution in art, we imagine trucks and padded crates going "nail to nail". However, in a broader perspective, one has to include city planning, cash flows, data sets, and democratic values among the elements distributed in the slipstream of the unique artwork. What forms do these derivatives take? How do these models of distribution feed back into artistic practices? What would be a "best practices" of distribution, both for artists and institutions?
