This is a shit, hatchet job piece of shabby journalism. A random collection of galleries and one art school. Most of these organizations probably replied "no comment." A "deep dive" my ass. Looks like shoddy info from rando web sources.

Slow news day, so let's create some controversy to virtue signal and gin up some outrage. Paid by the word. Gotta write something.

Employers don’t have the option to say “no comment.” The list was compiled from job listing salary reporting that is now compulsory in New York City.

As someone who’s worked in every corner of the art world from gallery intern, to museum research assistant to auction house specialist, it looks pretty in line with what I’ve been accustomed to. There are just a lot of mid-level and commission-earning jobs that are omitted to make the high-level and low-level employee pay gap seem larger than it is.
