In addition, the creation, resourcing, and funding of the 'best' schools of Art and Design in the world mean little if there is not a concerted commitment to supporting practicing artists and designers after they graduate. Whilst the Federal Government continues to slash ARC and Australia Council funding of the arts, and focus on very naive and binary conceptions of 'cultural value', we'll continue to graduate world-class artists and designers whom have no support to ply their trade within the Australian context. We don't just need the best Art and Design Schools in Australia, we need to foster an environment that understands and values art and design as fundamental to a socially and culturally robust society. We're still a little ways away from this cultural utopia.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05620736853048584492noreply@blogger.com
