This important and timely study makes the point that in order to make a real difference in the creative lives of artists, we will need to develop a new understanding and appreciation for who artists are and what they do as well as new financial resources from a variety of stakeholders. The study also stresses that in order to bring about positive change that benefits artists, arts administrators, funders, government, business and artists themselves will have to be involved in and committed to change.
“This study, which includes information on ways in which the environment of support may be improved over the long haul, offers a real opportunity to make a difference in the artistic landscape of the country. We hope it receives a wide readership and that its useful insights can prove the basis for a new approach to investing in creativity.” — Allison R. Bernstein, Vice President, The Program on Knowledge, Creativity and Freedom, The Ford Foundation
