Inhaltsangabe
Im Jahr 2001 wurde Currency House in einer Zeit hoher Unsicherheit aus der Überzeugung heraus konzipiert, dass die Kunst für eine Zivilgesellschaft von grundlegender Bedeutung ist; dass eine Gesellschaft, die ihre eigene Kunst nicht schätzt, eine Nation ist, die von ihrer eigenen Kultur entfremdet ist". In diesem Sinne reflektiert seine Redakteurin Katharine Brisbane das Erbe der 62 seit 2004 veröffentlichten Autoren, die die Aufklärung erhielten, was es in Australien bedeutet, Kunstarbeiterin und Verteidigerin des öffentlichen Guts zu sein. Seitdem wurde das Leben der Künstler vom digitalen Reich überholt, Reformen zur Politik und Globalisierung. Einige haben diese Anreize genutzt, um internationalen Erfolg zu erzielen; aber für die meisten ist das Überleben prekärer denn je. Unsere öffentlichen Einrichtungen, die sich der Bereitstellung genauer Nachrichten, informierter Meinung, Gesundheitswesen und Sozialforschung verschrieben haben, haben ebenfalls gelitten. Im Jahr 2020 hat Covid-19 die Zerbrechlichkeit einer solchen Gesellschaft aufgedeckt. Dieses Papier überprüft die Probleme und die Möglichkeiten, die uns jetzt eröffnen, die Kunst auf eine sicherere Grundlage zu stellen.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Back in 2001 at a time of high uncertainty, Currency House 'was conceived out of a conviction that the arts are fundamental to a civil society; that a society that does not value its own arts is a nation alienated from its own culture'. With this in mind, its editor, Katharine Brisbane, reflects on the legacy of the 62 authors published since 2004 who were given the brief to tell what it means in Australia to be an arts worker and defender of the public good.Since then, the lives of artists have been overtaken by the digital realm, reforms to policy and globalisation. Some have used these incentives to achieve international success; but, for most, survival is more precarious than ever. Our public institutions, dedicated to providing accurate news, informed opinion, health care and social research, have also suffered. In 2020, Covid-19 has exposed the fragility of such a society.This paper reviews the problems faced, and the opportunities now opening for us to set the arts on a more secure foundation.
