Abstract

Abstract Performing artists seem to remain in the culture sector despite the challenges with sustaining an artistic practice. Our research question is why the occupational commitment of the artistic precariat survives an external shock like the Covid-19 shutdown. We combined quantitative and qualitative survey data among performing artists in Norway (N = 607) one year into the pandemic. Innovation and portfolio management took place in tandem with intense identity work. The perception of “otherness” reinforced overall artist identity and thereby sustained occupational commitment. Any excess supply of practitioners in the sector seems to some degree disconnected from the actual economic conditions.
不可避免的Les missamrables ?理解艺术不稳定的意义
抽象表演艺术家似乎仍然留在文化部门,尽管维持艺术实践面临挑战。我们的研究问题是,为什么艺术工作者的职业承诺能在新冠肺炎疫情关闭等外部冲击中幸存下来。我们结合了挪威表演艺术家的定量和定性调查数据(N = 607)。创新和投资组合管理与紧张的身份识别工作同时进行。对“另类”的感知强化了艺术家的整体身份,从而维持了职业承诺。该行业从业者的任何过剩供应似乎在某种程度上与实际经济状况脱节。

期刊介绍: How will technology change the arts world? Who owns what in the information age? How will museums survive in the future? The Journal of Arts Management, Law, and Society has supplied answers to these kinds of questions for more than twenty-five years, becoming the authoritative resource for arts policymakers and analysts, sociologists, arts and cultural administrators, educators, trustees, artists, lawyers, and citizens concerned with the performing, visual, and media arts, as well as cultural affairs. Articles, commentaries, and reviews of publications address marketing, intellectual property, arts policy, arts law, governance, and cultural production and dissemination, always from a variety of philosophical, disciplinary, and national and international perspectives.
