The Arts Council of Grea t Britain was formed in August 1946 to continue in peacetim e the work begun with Government support by th e

Council for the Encouragement of Music and the Arts. The Arts Council operates under a revised Royal Charter granted in 1967 in which its objects are stated as :

(a) to develop and improve th e knowledge, understanding an d practice of the arts ; (b)to increase the accessibilit y of the arts to the public throughout Great Britain ; (c) to advise and co-operat e with departments of government, local authoritie s and other bodies .

The Arts Council, as a publicl y S3 accountable body, publishes a n ro annual report and accounts t o a n provide Parliament and th e general public with an overview e 3 Front coeari Ttra renovated AUmmbre of the year 's work .

This is my last report as Chairman of the Arts Council, so it may b e the arts mus -, appropriate if my mind, in valedictory mood, surveys not only the last 12 months, but all my seven years in office . When I arrived, I brough t never los e with me to the Council a worthy guide, Samuel Johnson ; if there is on e achievement of which I have the fondest memory, it is the exhibition i n 1984 held at our headquarters in Piccadilly, at my suggestion, to mar k sight of th e the bicentenary of his death . The Arts Council is in the business of patronage - a subject abou t goal o f which the Doctor had something to say - and I hope that in my time i t has learnt to avoid the arrogance of one kind of patron (the aristocra t whose functions the Arts Council has now in large part assumed) an d excellence . " to court the favours of quite another kind, the citizen . We are coming to

2 metropolitan county councils presented . Co-operating with the Regional Arts Associations and the successor councils and aided by a generous subvention from government, we were able to ensure that th e arts took no harm. We inherited the South Bank Centre ; already a success story unde r the Greater Council, we turned it into a triumph. The Arts

Council was responsible for the Centre's management for two years, and then, last April, was able to give it independence . It flourishes like the bay tree . The Arts Council as a bureaucracy is now in good shape to face the challenge of the times . Although there is some streamlining still to do, the reform of our organisational arrangements - and in particular the formation of three new departments for Marketing, for Film, Video an d Broadcasting and for Planning - has significantly increased ou r effecfiveness . The outcome has been a great release of energy . We are movin g forward on many fronts ; a selection of recent initiatives include a radical reform of the system of client evaluation ; help for ethnic value the consumer's judgement as highly as that of the official or th e minority arts ; a code of practice on the arts and disability ; th e expert . So if the institution which I will leave next March on the expiry of development of incentive funding; the formation of on independen t my term is in need of a motto, it could do worse than to adopt the line s drama production company, Upstart ; the opening of our doors to th e Johnson wrote for Garrick : arts of other nations.

The voice of the public must Finally, those responsible for the distribution of public monies to the also be given due weight . This is the fundamental reason why I support arts must never lose sight of the goal of excellence . The word fell into the Council's objective to reduce the arts world's reliance on stat e desuetude as the Arts Council, in collaboration with the Regional Art s subsidy and to lower the proportion (but not of course the absolut e Associafions, developed policies which had the central aim o f amount) of grant to the overall turnover of arts organisations ; for the increasing the accessibility of the arts to all sorts and conditions of me n way in which the public discriminates is through its willingness to pa y and women .

S o far we have not shifted as many resources from London to the region s as we would have liked, but in other respects Glory has succeeded i n re-drawing the English arts map . With hardly a pause the Arts Council went on to address th e challenge which the abolition of the Greater London Council and the Rees-Mogg SECRETAR Y

We shall certainly continue to put which is why, perhaps, details of these increased allocations for a that case to the government . But we also accept and understand that whole range of activities have never been reported, in spite of ou r we have to work within limited resources and that the begging bow l attempts to tell everyone . In addition to increases for the Regional Arts approach is not one that will help either the Arts Council or the man y Associations and for Touring we have been able to start a n arts organisations that we exist to serve. We must be able to show, a s Intemational Initiatives Fund . We have increased allocations t o Lord Rees-Mogg points out in his introduction, that earnings and Literature, to Ethnic Minority Arts and to Film, Video and Broadcasting . We have also been able to adjust some of the imbalances in th e funding of the different Regional Arts Associations by introducing a formula by which an element of the funding is now calculated . We hav e not yet ironed out all the imbalances but we have at last taken the firs t steps towards doing so . The government's decision to fund the Council on a three year basis has already had far-reaching effects . It has meant that everyone wit h whom we deal has a greater opportunity to plan ahead, thus makin g better use of limited resources in a way that has never been possibl e before. Although the increases in the government grant to the Counci l ore minimal in years two and three of our first three year period at leas t we know what the financial limitations are and can plan accordingly . I hope both the Council and its clients will be able to become mor e efficient as a result of this important innovation . All this does mean that there is a lot of talk about measureoble objectives, financial management, marketing, consultants and other subjects that are no t

generally associated with the arts or the Arts Council . It has arouse d worries about increased bureaucracy and less freedom for arts groups. We cannot dispel those fears overnight but I hope that as long ter m

"The spirit of commun r y, the spiri t

of feeling that life is not whol e

unless the arts are part of it, is

returning ." As this report appears, in Autumn 1988, there are to be no less tha n three major conferences on the subject of the arts as an engine fo r inner city re-generation . From Glasgow to Kent local politicians , businessmen and arts administrators from this country, as well a s experts from abroad, will be spending a full two weeks debating th e subject . This is an idea, it seems, that has come of age. The frenzy of activity will be considering how successfully that idea has already been put into action, sharing expertise, and asking wher e should it go next. It will also, one suspects, be seeking to sell the ide a

as hard as possible to those with the power to act on it. Just from recen t evidence in this country, there will be much to talk about . The notion that the arts hod something to offer in hard economi c terms, supplementing the traditional justification that they were simpl y a "good thing", made a notional impact here in 1985 - with th e publication of the Arts Councit's report A Great British Success Story . Since then it is an argument that has steadily gathered momentum , culminating in the recent Policy Studies Institute report which pointe d out that the arts were as important to the nation's economy as the motor industry. Between the two, a matching momentum has grown in the numbers of local economies keen to get in on the act, and to use th e arts and related "cultural industries" to boost their own, often ailin g prospects. The arts, the argument goes, can offer a significant number of jobs i n areas where the disappearance of traditional industries has led to hig h levels of unemployment . They can create more jobs through attractin g

28 tourism, and, as other people find a place attractive, they can create a new mood of "confidence" . Most important, they can transform the image of a depressed area as a means of attracting new industries . The most dramatic transformation yet to occur is, of course , Glasgow. First in the field, it marketed its arts facilities heavily in th e 1983 Glasgow 's Miles Better campaign, started Mayfest the yea r before and opened the Burrell Collection the year after. It is now miles ahead. In a few years it has moved from being considered Europe's blackspot to being European City of Culture 1990, and is now aiming t o be the world's first "post-industrial city" . Appropriately, it is the venue had libraries, art galleries, music, orchestras, choirs. You needed the for the biggest of this year's three conferences - Arts And The whole of the arts to make the cities . . .

Financial Time s

The relationship of arts and business is becoming highl y sophisticated . It has developed for beyond the simple exchange of cas h

for up-market entertainment facilities, with enhanced corporate imag e thrown in for good measure . The arts are not expecting business to give support out of th e kindness of its heart . Asking for money, yes - but not holding out th e begging bowl . The arts ore ready and willing to give as good as

they get , For the first time the Arts Council is addressing key business peopl e directly through its annual report. It is reaching out to the country's top business and professional organisations because it feels that business has as much to gain from involvement with the arts as the other way round . The arts are certainly no longer the passive partner in th e marriage. "We ar e Greater contact and co-operation between business and the art s has opened up a host of possiblities from which both sides can benefit - sometimes in unexpected directions. The idea that the busines s sellin g community can improve the managerial efficiency of arts groups is not new . North West Arts have turned the concept on its head to launch a pilot scheme aimed at improving the business performance of about 20 art skill s managers from IBM and the Manchester Chamber of Commerce . Freelance community artist Gerri Moriarty drew a parallel betwee n the skills an artist draws on to please an audience and the skill s to busines s required to run a successful business . The two day course she ha s devised uses the creative processes, from art to acting, to stimulate th e imagination of the businessmen . Think of it, if you like, as a kind o f instea d Outward Bound scheme for the jaded executive, challenging powers o f expression rather than physical prowess . Sally Medlyn, deputy director of North West Arts, said: "We hope of th e this is going to be a model for other initiatives . It is unusual because we are selling art skills to business instead of the other way round . other wa y

"The artist has to stand up and deliver to on audience - and th e businessman has to deliver his project to the customer. We think that art has a lot to offer to business training schemes ." Sponsorshi p The myth persists that sponsorship objectives are settled according t o the fads and fancies of the chairman 's wife . In reality, sponsorship is a n important part of a company's marketing strategy - with consultatio n of spouses no more likely than in any other field of company policy . Beck's Bier is one company that has used sponsorship to fulfil ver y specific marketing objectives with its support for the mime grou p does .

Government funding of the Council wa s announced on a three year basis, allowing us t o plan further ahead and use resources far mor e effectively. An incentive funding scheme was developed out of a special government fund, aiming t o improve arts organisations' financial stability b y encouraging better management and increase d private sector income . An international initiative s fund was created to develop our role i n international cultural affairs . Upstart, an independent touring theatre company, was set up with Arts Council capital - isation to produce plays and musicals on tour. London's South Bank became independen t after two years as part of the Council .

The South Bank Board runs, on behalf of the Arts Council, the South Bank's three concert halls (the Royal Festival Hall, th e Queen Elizabeth Hall and the Purcell Room), the Craft Centre and from April 1987 the Hayward Gallery. On behalf of the Arts Council, the Board is also the landlord of the National Theatre and the National Film Theatre including the Museum of th e Moving Image opening in 1988 . The freehold land and buildings in the accounts comprise the above buildings and th e surrounding land owned by the Arts Council . The most recent depreciated replacement cost assessment of land and buildings, the approach to which is set out in note 1 c), was made in February 1988 and amounted to £25,175,000 . A revaluation of land and buildings on a depreciated replacement cost basis will be undertaken at regular intervals . The open market value of the land has been assessed at nil, given its existing use . The value to the Board of its freehold interest in the National Theatre, the National Film Theatre and the Museum of the Moving Image has also been assessed at nil , given the long leases to which they are subject. The additions to fixed assets include £41,000 in respect of the net book value of plant and machinery transferred from th e Arts Council as explained in note 14.
