Picasso, Monet, and Louis Vuitton: Appreciation of Arts Dampens Desire For Luxury Goods
Appreciating visual arts decreases consumers’ desire for luxury goods. This effect occurred when consumers viewed artworks in an art exhibition, in an artistically decorated shopping mall, or on a computer. Desire for luxury goods was measured by both attitudinal and incentive-compatible choice measures across 2 field studies and 4 lab experiments. We also identified boundary conditions of this effect.
