But equall y disastrous, in my opinion, has been the recently fashionabl e condemnation of the Hayward Gallery - which, of course, paves th e way for its proposed destruction and replacement by yet more of th e shops and services of the consumer society. Even if a new gallery wer e guaranteed, the proposal is surely most appalling. First, because th e contrasted volumes of the great spaces inside the Hayward are an d always have been remarkably satisfactory as exhibition spaces (th e Matisse show, with which the Hayward opened, was stunning) . And secondly, because London simply cannot afford to be stripped of any o f its major gallery space, even for a week! Already the French must be giving themselves 30 times the major official gallery space in Paris tha t the Tate, the Hayward and the Whiteehapel provide for London . British governments, of course, simply cannot begin to apprehend the crud e political truth that a great capital city furnished by the state with 20 times the exhibiting gallery space we have at present in London , constitutes an immensely powerful magnet on the international scene . The purely political power and authority that the great museums o f Paris and America exert internationally seem to be a phenomenon tha t Whitehall has never taken note of.

There ar e Again, one could say that painting's influence is not restricted to ou r also questions which take more answering : how did it come about tha t conscious seeing of whatever it is we are looking at . One could say tha t Matisse's intense delight in the sunlit realities of garden, balcony o r the man-made world, from clothes to ashtrays, is also profoundly boudoir blazed unrestrained through the horrendous years of Worl d affected by those divisions of a canvas's surface, those intervals, thos e War II? Matisse, in the years 1940-45, surely proves that, so far fro m rounded oblongs, those grids which have been articulated, for their ow n reflecting the current state of society, great art can fly in the face o f sake, in painting . Painting, of course, has nothing to do but organise an d contemporary social and political realities - with utterly triumphan t reorganise, a million times over, unending permutations of colour and results. form .

56 The value of the Council's art collection at 31 March 1990, in the opinion of the Secretary-General, wa s approximately 422 million. The collection's curator has confirmed that in her opinion, this valuation remains valid a t 31 March 1991 . The amounts written off in the year refer principally to items lost or damaged, and for which insurance claims hav e been made . The purpose of the collection is to increase the understanding and appreciation of contemporary art and to widen it s audience through loans to other galleries and public institutions and touring exhibitions . It is not held for investment or resale . In August 1990 the Council moved its headquarters from Piccadilly to Great Peter Street. Additions to fixed assets relate largely to the renovation and development of the new premises . Other costs relating to the move are incorporated withi n operational costs (note 5) .

The Council is committed to reducing its staffing and overheads costs, thereby allowing more of its resources to b e directly applied to arts activity, and has agreed a reduction target to be implemented by 1993/94 . Such implementation is likely to result in redundancy or early retirement costs. These cannot be accurately calculated until a new staffin g structure is agreed and the date of implementation for the new structure decided upon . However, a provision has been made for the estimated potential liability .

20 National Film and The Welsh Arts Council is providing administrative and accounting support to a pilot project working towards th e Video Archive Project establishment of a National Film and Video Archive for Wales . The project was extended during 1990/91 and will no w rum until March 1992 by which date arrangements for the Archive's further development will be determined . The Council contributed £13,500 to the project in 1990/91 (1989/90: 12,500) and this is recorded in the Income and Expenditure Account as part of General Expenditure on the Arts in Wales . A further 4,500 will be contributed and accounted for in 1991/92 . During the pilot project costs will be matched with income and therefore at 31 March 1991 the balance of income, received in advance of related expenditure, is treated as a creditor. Gross income and expenditure figures for 1990/91 and the balance carried forward to future years were:

Balance from previous year 28 Income received 33 Expenditure (44 ) Carried forward at 31 March 17

21 Adjustment of 1990 figures Agency staff costs of £1,955 have been transferred from salaries and wages (note 4) to a separate heading under note 5. Salary costs of £3,875 have been transferred from fuel, light and house expenses (note 5) to salaries and wages (note 4). Under note 10 the 1990 figures have been adjusted to show separately gross operating lease payments of £154,912 and rental income of £61,500 from sub-leasing part of the Oriel Bookshop and Gallery site . Previously, the rental incom e was netted off operating leases under this note .

Comptroller and Auditor General's Certificat e 1 have examined the financial statements on pages 95 to 104 in accordance with the National Audit Office auditin g standards. In my opinion the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Welsh Art s Council at 31 March 1991 and of its surplus and source and application of funds for the year then ended and have bee n properly prepared in accordance with the directions made by the Minister for the Arts .

Lord Palumbo, Chairman, writes that the arts "are uniquely placed to set the mood of the nation and to act as an agency for raising expectations". He highlights the role of Arts 2000, the selection between now and the millennium of a city, tow n or region that will be designated United Kingdom City of Culture. Anthony Everitt, Secretary-General, emphasises that th e focus of our work is the artistic act, and the artistic experience . Arts Council Directors note the high quality of the arts i n Britain, and the help given in training, management and planning to arts organisations. Audiences for the arts continue to grow.
