The results of analyzing complete cinema statistics for three years (2008, 2013 and 2017) indicate that the digitization process “from film reels to film files” contributes to strengthened diversity in terms of repertoire, distribution and new audiences. For policy makers, cinema operators and researchers, the study presents positive intended and unintended consequences of digitizing the cinema sector. These positive consequences offer cinema operators new opportunities when it comes to repertoire diversity.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46022694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data from in-depth interviews with twenty-eight art collectors in the United States, Latin America, and Europe, recruited from art fairs and social media platforms, we describe the pathways into collecting and the types of social positions that collectors assume in the contemporary art field. Interviews describe three entry points into art collecting: purchasing art for decorative reasons; exposure to the art through attending college; and growing up in a family that participates in the arts. The interviews describe two ways that collectors interact with the art field. Sometimes, collectors are “hierarchically oriented” when they buy and sell art in ways meant to increase their status and financial position. At other times, collectors are “communally oriented” when they collect art that reflects personal relationships with artists and artist organizations. The discussion section addresses collecting as a lifestyle, study limitations, and avenues for future research.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46830595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In semi-structured interviews, we asked if and then how creatives and developers in Norway relate to the concept of tourism and whether they see tourists or the tourism industry as a target market for cultural products. Our findings suggest that developers are likely, but creatives unlikely to see a relation between creative’s work and tourism or tourists, and the tourism industry as a target market for cultural products. Tourism is in other words a blind spot in the business practices of creative entrepreneurs.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44488480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Creators and business ventures consider crowdfunding as an outlet for promoting creative projects and raising funds. The literature and the media coverage overemphasized its benefits without taking into account key limitations for specific sectors. Based on exploratory, qualitative data gathering, this article investigates what artists expect from crowdfunding and what results from their successful engagement with this funding model. The findings organized in three sequential moments (pre-campaign, during and after) revealed that artists see crowdfunding as a contingent funding resort when other preferred methods are unavailable (subsidies, sponsorship, or labor market opportunities). While expecting to enter markets, artists remain restricted to their social networks, thus reaching successful, yet low funding targets. Artists report that the “investments” in their work resemble gift-giving practices of a costly nature. We interpret these findings as the result of a relative difficulty to reach out to other audiences and match one’s expectations with this funding model.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48115894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The impacts warrant a systematic review and categorization, the results of which will provide insights that contribute to justifying the integral place of public art in society. As no such systematic review has previously been carried out, this article seeks to provide a qualitative synthesis of original articles selected from four major databases of international journals using a combination of keyword searches and filtering procedures. The 839 articles retrieved from the initial searches were screened by title and abstract. The remaining 132 articles were read in full, with 50 studies eventually being selected for analysis and synthesis. The public art impacts identified were organized into eight categories, in terms of placemaking, society, culture, economy, sustainability, wellbeing, wisdom and innovation. Implications were then drawn with respect to future research on the impacts and evaluation of public art.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45731131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast, employees assess leadership communication quality rather mixed and especially communication of managers from the artistic area as mediocre. Furthermore, results of a polynomial regression with surface analysis indicate that managers can reduce knowledge integration problems across the areas when being sensitive to employees in areas other than their own.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45371007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After tracing the history of perceptions of public funding of artists in the U.S., we turn to the contemporary moment. Using 2017 and 2019 data from novel national surveys of adults, this study examines opinions about whether artists should receive public funding. Logistic regression results reveal that historic demographic predictors of support for public arts funding also predict contemporary opinion about public funding for artists and, notably, that public opinion is significantly more supportive of public funding for artists when they are seen as collaborators, problem-solvers, and working to bring attention to community matters. These empirical results suggest new means for fostering and supporting artists’ work in local communities.","PeriodicalId":45760,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ARTS MANAGEMENT LAW AND SOCIETY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47718101","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
