TY - JOUR TI - In Search of a Measure of Success in an Artistic Career AU - Plebańczyk, Katarzyna TI - In Search of a Measure of Success in an Artistic Career AB - The concept of success is a subjective category, making it a challenging area for research. It was, therefore, intriguing to delve deeper into what artists themselves consider to be a success. This text has been crafted around this issue, presenting a qualitative review of the relevant literature. This includes shifts in responsibility for career management from organisations to individuals and the evolving job market for artists, where there is an increasing move away from traditional employment models towards self-management of careers. Research findings selected by the author have been presented, highlighting the diversity of approaches, challenges, and barriers to self-management as defined by the artists themselves.
