ABSTRACT

Creative Europe presents the main results of a three year empirical and conceptual research analysing:

• the challenges and practical problems artists and other cultural actors have been facing under the new economic and political conditions of the late 1990s and the early 21st century;
• what is being done by European governments to support contemporary artistic work;
• new modes of partnerships between public, private and non-profit actors which have evolved to support artistic creativity and cultural innovations under the prevailing and emerging new conditions.

During the research process, 13 case studies, 20 country profiles, and 6 sector analyses were produced.  Eight seminars and debates were organised within the context of the projects to acquire additional “voices from the field”.
