| One of the issues the research raises is the value of persistence in the art world. Feral Trade has made a series of attempts to enter the food chain of other institutions as a vendor, with variable results. This supplier-style relationship, with its repeat cycle of orders, delivery and invoicing, breaks with the art world's natural currency of novelty. While event-based spectacles such as the one-off exhibition and service of Feral Trade coffee have been easy to negotiate, attempts at sustained engagement with the infrastructure have met with relative inertia (see http://www.feraltrade.org/cgi-bin/shipments/2shipping.pl?action=list_shipments&viewall=1&new_sort=sendloc&criterion=V%26A for a rare instance of success). | One of the issues the research raises is the value of persistence in the art world.
