In Poor Artists, art criticism duo The White Pube, known for their sharp commentary, explore the increasingly unattainable nature of being a professional artist. Gabrielle de la Puente and Zarina Muhammad, dubbed "the Diet Prada of the art world" by British Vogue, critique an industry that has turned art into commodified products and transformed art schools into competitive institutions. The novel follows Quest Talukdar, an aspiring artist, on a surreal journey, questioning whether success or authenticity matters more. Through interviews with diverse figures, including a Turner Prize winner and a Venice Biennale fraudster, The White Pube offer a unique take on the art world.
