Arts and Cultural Management: Critical and Primary Sources

Description

Arts and Cultural Management: Critical and Primary Sources offers a comprehensive collection of key writings on this relatively new and rapidly growing field. The collected essays draw upon both scholarly and professional literature worldwide and range across the arts in the commercial, not-for-profit and public sectors. Each volume is arranged thematically and separately introduced by the editors. The set includes 84 essays covering the following major tracks: organization, structure and governance; production and distribution of the arts; participation and engagement; resource development and marketing; and policy, advocacy and field development. Together the four volumes of Arts and Cultural Management present a major scholarly resource for the field.

Ellen Rosewall is Professor and Chair of Arts Management at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, USA. She is author of the major textbook, Arts Management: Bringing Arts and Audiences Together in the 21st Century (2013). Rachel Shane is Chair of the Department of Arts Administration at the University of Kentucky, USA. She is editor-in-chief of the Journal of Arts Management, Law and Society.

This collection is a most welcome addition to the resources that mark a growing sense of self-awareness for a maturing field. The broad collection is well organized which facilitates ease of use ... A valuable resource for informing both our pedagogy and our future research. [Rosewall and Shane] have also given us a prism with which to better perceive what has shaped our field and its current state. Both achievements deserve recognition and applause. * Cultural Management: Science and Education *
