Tasks:
Why is cultural policy interesting?
We who have cultural policy do not always understand the benefits of it.
And then it may be good to compare with someone who does not have a culture policy. "There is not a single Arab country that has a cultural policy." Makars do not see culture as an asset, but as a threat, because it leads to reflection and questioning. ", Says the cultural producer
Basma El Husseiny in an article in SVD
(http://www.svd.se/kultur/en-ny-kulturgryning-for-egypten_6164999.svd External link fetched
04.03.2015)
So cultural policy concerns reflection and questioning. But not just that. Culture producer Basma El Hussein meets in
Egypt people who want to express themselves, but "- They do not know how to organize themselves, how to organize a book fair, how to promote
say how to work across borders. And they receive no money from the state, which only supports the old institutions, which everyone has
stagnant. "So cultural policy is about the right to express themselves, organization, equality, distribution, funding and democracy. And that's just part of what cultural policy is about.
So the course is tailor made for you who think reflection, questioning, the right to meet, equality, funding issues, distribution and democracy are relevant elements in our society.
In addition, the course includes
- how art has increasingly begun to be linked to business policy,
- the contradiction that exists in the cultural and cultural aura of creativity and innovation, on the one hand, and the stability and inertia that characterize many cultural activities.
- Autonomy and politics of art
That Finland has a eurovision participant like Pertti Kurikan Nimipäivät, a festival like the Baltic Circle, a center library, the world's densest gallery network, cultural education, a independent theater field, a film industry has to do with people who want to express themselves, have to do it and also have an infrastructure which supports them in this. This whole infrastructure depends on people you appreciate the expressions that exist in this sphere and wants to support it both politically and financially.
Culture Producer and Culture Policy
As a cultural producer, you often end up in a situation where your festival, your event, your theater production, etc. way towards other investments.
The cultural producer's task is to make art and culture visible in society. If a politician asks you questions like "what's culture," "Why is art important?", You must have a convincing answer to it. You must know the essence of your business and be able to argue for the culture.
