Some people insist that governments should support artists financially, while others believe that they should find supporters among other resources. To improve the field of art, funding by the government is logical for other people, however I think they should be provided money for it by others.
There are several reasons why governments should help those who are working in inventive creativities. It can improve the economy, because creative arts can be a good way to notice their country. Famous artworks can grab plenty of tourists, which means it is also a great means to earn much revenue. By receiving government-funding, the artists’s position also will enhances as it means that the ministry consider the art area as a valuable part. Furthermore, citizens’ live can be greatly enriched by enjoying a lot of artwork which is produced by the artists who got support from the government in galleries. It brings the public’s awareness of arts to increase and it also has a positive effect on developing arts.
Nevertheless, I believe they should find other advocates for their work because it affects their concept of arts that depending on governments and the allocated budget is limited. There is no doubt that the creativities can be influenced by the government’s thoughts, if artists are supported by them. Therefore, artists need to meet patrons who have the same purpose or interests in order to keep their own style. Generally, creating a masterpiece not only takes a long time, but also require a lot of money. However, there are plenty of sections in a country that need the budget such as environmental problems and the public health, which means it is limited to help artists using the ministries’ funding.
In conclusion, I believe artists should look for advocates who are enthusiastic for developing the art field instead of depending on the funding from governments, even though, for some, the support from ministries is necessary for the artists. |
