Description: This paper focuses on recent developments in contemporary Western art, and applies and challenges the GoodWork® model. The various perspectives of professionals in contemporary art are considered as well as the roles of art and artists within society. Given the particular nature of the art profession, this paper suggests that GoodWork® in contemporary art does not fit perfectly into the model proposed by the authors of GoodWork®. The art field seems more chaotic and unanchored than more traditional realms such as medicine and journalism, when in fact, it is not. This paper explores how GoodWork® might be carried out within the realm of contemporary visual art. If one approaches the making and receiving of visual art with an understanding of the value of its practice and function within society, basic tenets emerge for how GoodWork® might be carried out in contemporary visual arts.
