Research On The Western Government's Thought Of Supporting Art Economy

The government's support for art originates from the western world,which can be traced back to the behavior of the church,the aristocracy and the big businessmen in sponsoring art.After the establishment of modern government,it began to intervene in the field of art and culture through taxes,bills and other public powers.In the first half of the 20 th century,with the gradual deepening of national management of art,the idea of national support for art economy began to germinate and mature.Especially in developed countries such as Britain and the United States,in order to give full play to their artistic and cultural functions,maintain the rapid development and stable operation of artistic and economic activities,and ensure that citizens can better enjoy the artistic and cultural achievements,various associations and organizations were established in the following nearly a century,to lead or cooperate with the efforts of some politicians who are keen on artistic inheritance and rich in cultural development insights,to help each country to promulgate art and culture policies,promote the implementation of art and culture measures,and even to supervise the art and culture market,which have a profound impact on other western mainstream countries.Coincidentally,the state's involvement and support is also an important milestone in the development of art and economic thought.Since art has become a commodity to participate in economic activities,it has been faced with an awkward dilemma as an economic exception.No matter the creation,consumption,or pricing of art activities exist in people's art and cultural life with a variety of conclusions that do not conform to economic common sense.This phenomenon,which we now think is "market failure",obviously provides an important ideological premise for the government to support the art economy.Since the 1950 s,people have paid more and more attention to the government's support for art economy.The economists' discussions about whether the government should support art,why it should support art,and how to support art totally have directly promoted the birth of a new discipline--Culture(Art)Economics.In general,it is conducive to further research on art economic thought to dig into the background,main content and development context of western governments' art supporting thought.On the other hand,it is of great practical significance to fully grasp the characteristics of the main western art and culture system development system and apply it to China's culture and art economy,so as to further promote cultural construction and accelerate the transformation of government functions above the current level.This paper summarizes the basic contents of Western governments' support for art by exploring the relevant materials of western governments' support for art and its practice.Firstly,it sorts out the changes and changes of Western art patrons before Western governments' support for art economy,from the powerful class to booksellers,publishers to the government.At the same time,it explains the art in the eyes of early economists Then,focusing on the early twentieth century in Britain and the United States,the paper abstracts the main economic thoughts of the parties involved in the art management,and the reasons why economists agree or oppose the government's support for the art economy,and summarizes the main models of government art management built on this basis.At the same time,this paper also tries to get through the history and reality,integrate the West with China,use the western thought to analyze our country's reality,and provide some experience and reference for our country's art and culture development.This paper clearly defines the related concepts of art economy,integrates the historical development,ideological origin and practical application of western government's support for art economy,and tries to explore the reality of western government's support for art economy,especially the management practice of Western art culture and the reference significance for the construction and development of Art culture in China,all of which have certain innovation.The basic conclusion of this paper is that the western government's support for art economy is not only the result of the development of art economy history,but also the result of the inheritance of art economy thoughts.In the study of economic theory,it is also found that the government's support for art economy also has certain inevitability.Therefore,in the process of promoting the development of art and culture,we should also pay attention to the role of the government,and combine with the actual situation to develop a suitable way for the development of art and culture,in order to give full play to the art and culture functions of our government.
