How can we make the arts less elitist asks Sorcha Carey (Director, Edinburgh Art Festival) writing on the Museums Association website: http://www.museumsassociation.org/museums-journal/comment/04032015-voxpop?utm_source=ma&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=12032015
And how patronising the suggestions that follow!
The arts can be made less elitist by junking modernism and abstraction and all the rest of the emperor's-new-clothes arts scams that have blighted the last hundred years.
Let the elites fund abstraction from their own pockets.
The rule should be no public money spent on art that is unintelligible to ordinary people.
