Blank 1: no idea... continue reading..
Blank 2: fill with an appropriate word attention/approval E. approbation works
evidence #1: once only collected.... have now.... indicates a time contrast
evidence #2: and often sell for tens of thousands of dollars at auction
Blank 3: these works (refers to Lowbrow art under discusson) to substitute more classic pieces at galleries and museums. H. supplant
Blank 1: At this point, it is clear that blank 1 should mean that the inarguable success A. esteem fits well
Note: The movement’s detractors need not be surprised - no idea why this was mentioned; I do not see any evidence as to why the critics were not surprised.

The recent Lowbrow art movement of Los Angeles has inarguable (i)___________. Original works by artists such as Mark Ryden, once only collected by a select few, have now garnered greater (ii)___________and often sell for tens of thousands of dollars at auction. The movement’s detractors need not be surprised, then, that more people are clamoring for these works to (iii)___________more classic pieces at galleries and museums.
The phrases:
and often sell for tens of thousands of dollars at auction
that more people are clamoring for these works
imply that original works by artists such as Mark Ryden have now garnered greater approbation.
And since these works have now garnered greater approbation and often sell for tens of thousands of dollars at auction, we can be sure that the Lowbrow art movement of Los Angeles has inarguable esteem. There is nothing to suggest panache - dash or flamboyance in style or action.
And again, since these works have now garnered greater approbation, more people are clamouring for these works to supplant more classic pieces at galleries and museums.
