Abstract

Testo disponibile solo in lingua inglese.
The first part of this paper is devoted to the analysis of the relationship between art and money (the market). Section I deals with the proposition that "money destroys art", section II with the conception that "good artists are not interested in money", and section III with the conviction that "investment in art is financially highly profitable". The second part deals with art policy, and in particular with the proposition that "government must support the arts" (section IV); the introduction of a system of art vouchers is proposed. The paper ends by drawing some conclusions.
