Sari is joined by cultural insights expert Megan E. Collins for their second annual Summer Book Club series. This month's pick is W. David Marx's 2022 book Status and Culture: How Our Desire for Social Rank Creates Taste, Identity, Art, Fashion and Constant Change

We really enjoyed this book and I highly recommend for readers looking to take a deeper look at the hierarchies in our society and how status tiers inform cultural capital.

In our conversation, we hone in on how Status and Culture applies to modern day internet culture and of course, we discuss the applications of the book to the art world.
