The purpose of this study was to explore the extent of inequality in the representation of artists by blue-chip galleries. Specifically I examined the impact of the prestige of art school attended, race, sex, location lived, and socioeconomic status on gallery representation and museum exhibitions and collections. My research questions include examining if the prestige of the art school attended is related to the prestige of the gallery representing the artist, controlling for race, sex, socioeconomic status, and geographic location. I also explore if artists who attend more prestigious art schools are more likely to be in a museum collection or have a museum exhibition than those that do not.The theoretical framework for this research begins with the philosophy of taste and aesthetic theories. Symbolic interaction, Bourdieu's distinction, postmodernism, social network theory, the valuation of art, and research into outcomes in higher education round out the literature review. The research design is post-positivist, using quantitative methods to analyze data from various publicly available sources such as magazines, online data bases, and websites to examine the population of US artists who have gallery representation. I drew a systematic random sample of artists listed in the Art in America magazine Annual Guide to Museums, Galleries, and Artists (2018). This research provides an analysis regarding how education, race, sex, socioeconomic status, and prestige of art school attended relate to gallery representation and an artist's future career. The findings from this research extend scholarly knowledge of the art world and provide quantitative data to assess how power structures operate within the art world.My results show that there is a relationship between attending prestigious art schools, living location, and blue-chip galleries. Attending a prestigious school, or living in the Northeast, near galleries was significantly related to the prestige of the gallery suggesting that a maintenance of power resides within this hard-to-enter system. My data indicate that there are limitations for artists based on prestige of school attended, an artist's sex, socioeconomic status, residential location, and age.
