How to love Madonna, understand Shakespeare and create something new: complexities in contemporary arts and cultural management

Abstract

Infrastructures for the arts that were created, especially in the West in the latter half of the twentieth century, have reversed the natural dynamics of creativity, is the meaning of Corina Suteu. She argues that institutions have taken over many creative processes, blocking the genuinely avant-garde and the spiritual development of the arts. Cultural managers need to understand better creative processes: it is their task to educate the public to be able to understand artistic intentions. New models are needed: inter-disciplinary work, international exchanges and new technologies.
