This book examines the impact of states and their policies on
visual art. States shape the role of art and artists in society,
influence the development of audiences, support artistic work, and
even affect the very nature of artistic production. The book
contrasts developments in the United States with art policies in
Britain and in the social democratic states of Norway and Sweden.
In addition, it analyzes revealing transitions - the changes
brought about in East Germany after unification and the experiences
of artists who left the Soviet Union for the west. The result is a
significant contribution to the sociology and the political economy
of art.
