Thanks for finding the exception you need to prove your point, that must've taken a while. The argument that famous artists made a limited amount of art because there's only so much they could make in a lifetime is moot because of this one quintessential example of 1980's "video art" (those really go off the shelves at Sotheby's).

I mean it doesn't really take much time at all to find counter examples, does it? There's even a detailed page at Wikipedia with concrete examples, if you haven't ever heard of the concept of a limited or special edition: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_edition https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_edition The very first paragraph of the page is helpful: > The terms special edition, limited edition, and variants such as deluxe edition, or collector's edition, are used as a marketing incentive for various kinds of products, originally published products related to the arts, such as books, prints, recorded music and films, and videogames, but now including clothing, cars, fine wine, and whisky, among other products. A limited edition is restricted in the number of copies produced, although in fact the number may be very low or very high. Suzuki (2008) defines limited edition products as those “sold in a state that makes them difficult to obtain because of companies limiting their availability to a certain period, quantity, region, or channel"
