Although the literature on marketing of the arts is abundant, very few (if any) full-length works have examined the other side of the coin and closely studied the people who consume the products of the cultural industry. This book offers a summary of the knowledge garnered in recent decades by researchers exploring consumer behaviour in arts and culture. Each chapter explores a different aspect of consumer behaviour in the arts by answering the following questions: What do we know about this aspect of consumer behaviour in general? What do we know about this aspect as it relates to the consumption of art works or cultural experiences? What are the practical implications of this knowledge for managers working in the arts? What are the implications for researchers in this field?This book fills the need for scientific and practical knowledge about the people who consume arts and culture and will therefore be of particular interest to managers of cultural venues and institutions, to students or teachers in arts management training programs, to researchers in the field, to public policymakers in arts and culture, and to anyone directly or indirectly involved in creating, promoting and distributing artistic and cultural products.

This book uses rigorous case studies with definitive conclusions and develops a critical Cultural Studies perspective on both the cultural and creative industries (CCIs) and diversity politics.Through examining sophisticated processes through which race is negotiated and produced across film, television, public relations and advertising, this book reveals how these industries simultaneously understand race uniformly while operating through heterogeneous structures that both address and enact racism. This analysis exposes the contradictory nature of creative industries that publicly champion inclusivity while perpetuating systemic inequalities through their operational structures. By examining specific sectors within the CCIs, the book illustrates how racial difference is managed, commodified and reproduced through seemingly progressive diversity initiatives. Nwonka and Keddo call for a radical reconceptualisation of how we understand the CCIs' production and management of racial difference, challenging readers to move beyond surface-level diversity metrics towards deeper structural analysis of how creative industries function as sites of racial negotiation.Race and Racism in the Cultural and Creative Industries’ critical examination provides essential insights for scholars, practitioners and policymakers working within creative industries, offering frameworks for understanding the complex relationship between cultural production, racial identity and systemic inequality in contemporary Britain.

This textbook provides an expert overview of the challenge of arts and cultural leadership in the contemporary world. Grounded in theories of sustainability and with a renewed global focus for this second edition, the author’s insights from contemporary arts organizations facilitate meaningful student comprehension. Drawing on the work of practitioners and theorists in the fields of philosophy, biology, and ecology as well as the arts, Foster proposes a rethinking of organizational design, strategy, and structure that is based on ecological concepts and the creative process that is intrinsic to the arts rather than the conventional business model that currently prevails, particularly in western arts and culture organizations. He contests conventional thinking about arts administration and management and urges arts leaders to foreground innovation as they reimagine their organizations for a world unlike any other. New sections include an enhanced theoretical discussion as well as new material on business models, strategy, and organizational design and practice. Applicable to any arts organization, the entrepreneurial focus is especially relevant in the aftermath of the global pandemic, the ongoing climate crisis, and the quest for democracy and social justice.This updated edition will be a valuable resource both for present-day arts and cultural leaders who are working to adapt to the current environment as well as students and future leaders who aspire to make change in the world through arts and cultural leadership.
