A shareholder or stockholder is an individual or institution (including a corporation) that legally owns any part of a share of stock in a public or private corporation. Shareholders own the stock, but not the corporation itself. (Fama 1980).
Stockholders are granted special privileges depending on the class of stock. These rights may include:
Stockholders or shareholders are considered by some to be a subset of stakeholders, which may include anyone who has a direct or indirect interest in the business entity. For example, labor, suppliers, customers, the community, etc., are typically considered stakeholders because they contribute value and/or are impacted by the corporation.
Shareholders in the primary market who buy IPOs provide capital to corporations; however, the vast majority of shareholders are in the secondary market and provide no capital directly to the corporation.
Therefore, contrary to popular opinion, shareholders of American public corporations are not the (1) owners of the corporation, (2) the claimants of the profit, nor (3) investors, as in the contributors of capital.
Jessica Stockholder (born Seattle, Washington, 1959) is a sculptor and installation artist who has had exhibitions in Europe and USA, her works, "challenge boundaries, blurring the distinction among painting, sculpture and environment, and even breaching gallery walls by extending beyond windows and doors".
Stockholder studied painting at the University of Victoria in Victoria, Canada, and received an MFA from Yale University. In 2010 she was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from the Emily Carr College of Art. She is a pioneer of installation art, which mixes everyday consumer and household objects with high art traditions. Her works are often named after literary or theatrical works, and she is seen as having influenced a generation of artists.[citation needed]
Up until 2011, Stockholder worked as a director and professor of graduate studies in sculpture at Yale University. Currently she is the faculty chair of the Department of Visual Arts at the University of Chicago. Her work has been exhibited at Dia Center for the Arts, New York; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; P.S. 1, New York; SITE Santa Fe; the Venice Biennale; Kunstmuseum St. Gallen; and Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris.
