PhD defence: Ida Lunde Jørgensen
Where does support of the arts come from? Why do public and private foundations support the arts?
The thesis investigates the underlying legitimations of two of the most significant foundations supporting visual art in Denmark; the private New Carlsberg Foundation and public Danish Arts Foundation.
Drawing on neo-institutional and French convention theory, the thesis offers insight into the history of contemporary art support, proposes an overview of the key institutional arenas of cultural policy and outlines the central logics invoked in the support of visual art in Denmark.
