Indecent Proposal

My wife went to a drive-in movie with John Baldesarri some years ago.
This is true, you can ask her. They saw Indecent Proposal.
She and I went to the Baldesarri show at the Met yesterday and I
wondered if he thought having this show at the Met secured his work's
place in Art History.
Does a museum show legitimize or delegitimize his work?
Was Conceptual Art ever seriously counter-institutional?
Or free from the marketplace?
Is such freedom even possible?
What is your net worth?
