Arts Management is designed as an upper division undergraduate and graduate level text that covers the principles of arts management. It is the most comprehensive, up to date, and technologically advanced textbook on arts management on the market. While the book does include the background necessary for understanding the global arts marketplace, it assumes that cultural fine arts come to fruition through entrepreneurial processes, and that cultural fine arts organizations have to be entrepreneurial to thrive. Many cases and examples of successful arts organizations from the Unites States and abroad appear in every chapter. A singular strength of Arts Management is the author's skilful use of in-text tools to facilitate reader interest and engagement. These include learning objectives, chapter summaries, discussion questions and exercises, case studies, and numerous examples and cultural spotlights. Online instructor's materials with PowerPoints are available to adopters.
Culture is no longer a factor in the high performance equation: it is the equation We are in the midst of a seismic shift in leadership and company culture-one accelerated by the recent pandemic. In an era of remote work and online communications, company culture isn't bounded by walls or the type of business it does. It is tied to the attitudes, behaviors, and values of the people who create it. Throw in the increasing competition for talent, and the increasing desire for employees to find a shared purpose or connection with their employer, and it's clear that true leadership requires a new set of skills and a new way of thinking. It requires you to become a culturepreneur-putting culture at the centre of business strategy, knowing that it is individuals who create organizational culture. In this ground-breaking book, acclaimed author, speaker, and global expert on human capital Marty Parker takes you through what it means to be a culturepreneur, and how you can implement a culture operating system that drives culture transformation. Through interviews with notable leaders, case studies, and a review of best practices across industries, Parker illuminates how to approach culture as a deliberate goal-as opposed to an organic evolution-how to curate it, and how to develop a business system around it. You'll learn about the five key attributes of today's high-performance leaders and emerge with a new culturepreneurial mindset that will give you the corporate culture you desire and need-one supported by planning, leadership alignment, measurement, and the right human systems. An essential resource for current CEOs, leaders, and future leaders who realize a new cultural order is transforming what effective leadership is about, The Culturepreneur will help you and your organization reach new levels of performance-driving human, organizational, societal, and economic successes that exceed even your own expectations.
Landscapes of a New Cultural Economy of Space by Theano S. Terkenli,Anne-Marie d'Hauteserre Pdf
Making sense of new cultural economies, it is argued, needs consistent attention to the resonances of individual lives. Otherwise, a discussion of cultural economies remains suspended in a detached virtualism (Miller, 2000). The idea of the remaking of geographies and cultural economies remains, necessarily, a consistent search to make the subject dynamic in its resonance with the contemporary world. In recent debates concerning the reframing of the cultural economies of geography, there is an evidence of increasing acknowledgement of the overlooked importance of subjectivities within geographical explanation. This has often been difficult when trying to attend to the large scale apparent dynamics of change. The shift of geographies to focus upon cultural economies combines two profound threads that inform this chapter: the acknowledgement of the breadth and inclusivity of what economies are and the refusal mutually to isolate the cultural and the economic. Thus the economic becomes engaged and even framed in relation to the cultural, and vice versa. Such an appraisal makes more robust the limits of ‘either – or’ claims from these two grounding components of geographical thinking and its representation of the world. These themes are sustained in different ways across the chapters of this book. This chapter seeks to build a critical discourse concerning space, embodied practice and lay knowledge. It does this in order to address the mechanisms through which individuals are engaged in the processes of new cultural economies.

Handbook of Management and Creativity by Chris Bilton,Stephen Cummings Pdf
'In many organisations creativity is so often seen as the preserve of a small number of people with "artistic temperaments" but in my experience all sorts of people have creative abilities which can be used to the benefit of a "creative" organisation. The task of a manager is to find ways of exploiting this. This Handbook provides the reader with insights to help them and others to promote the kind of creativity that adds real value.' - Greg Dyke, Chair, British Film Institute; Chair, Football Association; Chancellor, University of York, UK and Director-General of the BBC 2000-2004
Managing situated creativity in cultural industries by Fiorenza Belussi,Silvia Sedita Pdf
Creativity is the emergence of something novel and appropriate, from a person, a group, a society. A creative idea or product must be novel. Yet, novelty is not enough (a novel idea may be ridiculous or nonsensical). In addition to novelty, to be creative an idea or product must also attain some level of social recognition. The individualist approaches to creativity overestimate the role of the individual and of his/her abilities (the myth of the genius). On the contrary, the socio-cultural approach emphasizes the role played by contexts in the creation process: societies, cultures and historical periods. Accordingly, the individual is seen as a member of many overlapping social groups, each of them has its own network, with a specific structure and organization, which influences the creation of networks of—potentially creative—ideas. Each individual is also a member of a culture, which gives him/her the categories used to understand the world. Finally, each individual is representative of a specific historical period. From a managerial perspective it is important to deepen the knowledge of the contexts, both spatial and cognitive, which favor ‘‘situated creativity’’ in the realm of the cultural industries. This special book offers both theoretical and empirical contributions in an attempt to build such knowledge.

This book asks what is the quality of participation in contemporary art and performance?

The Americans -- New Art is the first book to survey the most recent wave of young American contemporary artists, including many individuals who have only just begun to emerge onto the international scene. These artists belong to a generation that has developed an energetic & coherent alternative to the expansive & often brash aesthetic dismantled by the bubble-burst downturn of the American economy at the end of the 1980s. Featuring a selection of the work of 30 artists that demonstrates the use of both cutting-edge & traditional media, the book includes 200 illustrations, offering a stimulating mix of painting, sculpture, installation, photography, film & video. This group, most of whom are in their twenties or thirties, differ significantly from their exuberant Young British Artist counterparts. Their work is marked by a mood of speculation & introspection together with an approach to making art that verges on the obsessive-compulsive.
