The New York gallery Luxembourg & Dayan hosted ‘In the Making: Artists, Assistants, and Influence’ – a show tracing the link between artists and their (eventually famous) assistants. Interesting the role of the artist assistant is not only being recognised but also celebrated - well done them - although I think it will take a while for other galleries to catch on to dispelling the myth of the artist as sole creator. http://www.wallpaper.com/art/helping-hand-luxembourg-dayan-lauds-recognition-onto-artists-assistants-for-a-change
