Resumen: 'The arts matter because they embrace, express and define the soul of a civilisation. A nation without arts would be a nation that had stopped talking to itself, stopped dreaming and had lost interest in the past and lacked curiosity about the future.' John Tusa, examines the state of the arts in Britain today, asking how they can flourish in a cultural climate fraught with perils. Tusa looks at what current policies towards the arts: have been under the government of Prime Minister Tony Blair; the role of the Department of Culture, Media and Sport under its current minister Chris Smith; and the part played by the Arts Council as defined by its chairman Gerry Robinson. Art Matters offers a candid, behind-the-scenes look at decision-making at the very centre of power. Setting out a practical agenda explaining how leadership in the arts can be mastered for the good of creators and audiences alike, John Tusa exhorts us to think about why art matters for a people and its nation.
