Genuine question, do you know any artists? This isn't the case generally; certainly amongst ordinary working visual artists - who are demonstrably open minded, centred, and interpersonally engaged. I can't speak to Damien Hirst level centimillionaires, who represent an invisibly small fraction of working artists.
- chongli 4y agoApologies for nitpicking but the prefix you're looking for is hecto-. The prefix centi- means 1/100 [1], implying that Damien Hirst has only $10,000 to his name, starving artist level wealth!

- lynguist 4y agoIt’s really funny because centi- means both hundredth and hundred. And it’s a doublet of hecto! https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/centi- https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/centi-
- cfcfcf 4y agoRight, like bimonthly and biweekly.
- jonsen 4y agoMillionaire is not an SI unit, so centi- is not an SI prefix here.
