It’s Week 3 of Art Advent, and this week we’re giving away something truly special: a copy of the book Poor Artists by Gabrielle de la Puente and Zarina Muhammad, the duo behind The White Pube (one of our favorite art accounts on instagram!)
The book Poor Artists is a candid exploration of what it means to create art in a world that often puts wealth and privilege before talent and passion. It’s a book for anyone who has ever felt the challenges of navigating the art world without a safety net.
This book challenges the traditional idea of what it means to “make it” as an artist - or anyone working in creative fields. Gabrielle and Zarina draw from their own experiences and the stories of others to highlight the realities of being a creative in a system that isn’t designed for everyone. The story follows a young artist on their journey and is told based on anonymized interviews with real people from the art world.
Poor Artists asks important questions about accessibility, success, and who gets to create, and why. With their trademark wit and unflinching honesty, The White Pube creators reminds us that creativity is for everyone, not just the privileged few.
