For every one successful Gursky, there are five hundred digital 
guys who've been turned away. At least right now, it is an 
impossible battle. Who knows if it'll change, if ever? You already 
see the silver guys digging in their heels with fervor; they see the 
surge of digital, and are doing everything they can to batten down 
the hatches.

The only other approach that I COULD see working: direct sales 
from the artists' themselves, from their own personal websites. 
That way, you eliminate the snooty gallery person at the front 
door.
