Journal of Arts Management, Law and Society
vol. 36 (4), winter 2007

 

This issue has no specific theme, carrying articles which are very varied in topics and style.

Of special interest is Smith's discussion of various recent large-scale cultural events worldwide, suggesting that such mass events mainstream art into a corset of questionable curatorial intents and prevent viewers from engaging in works of art in search of their meaning.

Worth noting is furthermore the article by Dewey/Wyszomirski on university-based training in cultural policy and administration; they identify the necessary competencies and skills, and develop a framework and a set of recommendations for improving higher education in arts administration.

Cray/Inglis/Freeman review common management challenges in the arts, discussing core leadership as well as decision-making concepts.
