Imagine that your friend comes to you interested in a career in the photography field but unsure if he wants to be an actual photographer. Because of your interest in photography,
you agree to mentor and guide your friend as he makes this decision. You suggest that he
may want to explore other careers in the art world, like being an art critic, an art historian, an
art collector, an art gallery owner, or a philosopher of art (also known as an aesthetician).
You know that your friend is detail-oriented and likes making lists and cataloguing items. In
order to help your friend decide what career path to follow, you agree to do some research
about each of these career fields.
