SAH, Such an interesting topic, and why no discussion? Strange ...

I have long been willing to put out material as in Italy is supporting art at the state level, I still can not finish collecting data.

I just saw and neponyal like the theme I created long ago it was, no one wrote. I've forgot all about her, was surprised to be honest. :):) "I think it's interesting, but the theme of development as you can see not received. :shy:

Could someone have information from another part of the planet? :) AlexanderG exactly where something mentioned about that as they have the state subsidizes artists.

"Funding for our work comes from the government, but nevertheless, we hold the government at a distance. We - an independent organization, and the Government have in no way has no control over.

Vot eto interesno. Dumaiu "wishful thinking".

No tema bezuslovno interesnaia, o vzaimodeistvii gosudarstva i kul'tury.

Odin iz primerov - v Kanade na razvitie Art Management, let 15 nazad, pravitel'stvo vydelilo okolo 90 millionov dollarov. Segodnia ih shkola - samaia sil'naia v mire, a Fransua Kol'ber, schitaetsia veduschim spetsialistom mira po Art Marketing. Kstati on byl odnim iz moih prepodavatelei v Zal'tsburge. Ego kniga na etu temu perevedena na kuchu iazykov i vyderzala neskol'ko izdanii.

A vot i drugoi primer - ispolkom odnogo iz raionov Auckland (NZ) vydelil na razvitie arta $ 300,000, no zatem vyiasnilos', chto dol'schikov na eti den'gi okolo 100o chelovek, te $ 300 na cheloveka. Takie granty ni k chemu ne vedut.
