The arts economy 1968-1998: three decades of growth in Australia
This major research work gathers together a wide range of statistics and other cultural indicators in an attempt to map the progress of the arts sector in Australia over the last 30 years.
The arts are a much more significant part of all Australians' lives now than they were in the 1960s, but along with the spectacular increase in the number of artists has come a worrying decrease in the average income for those artists. A similar expansion in the number and capacity of performing arts centres across Australia has brought with it a new vulnerability to economic downturns.
Publications like this report will be fundamental to arts and cultural policy makers across Australia as they negoitate their ways through Australia's cultural landscape into the new century.
The arts economy: overview
This booklet is a companion to Hans Hoegh Guldberg's The Arts Economy 1968-1998: three Decades of Growth in Australia and was prepared as a reference guide to the larger report and presents edited highlights.
