However, it is important to understand that activities in each discipline are not necessarily comparible. The majority of music activities are single night events, whereas activities Breakdown in the performing and visual arts are often part of a longer run exhibition, activities in literature are often translations distributed across the globe, and activities in design, digital culture, heritage and Moscow architecture are often related to large fairs, symposiums, conferences or research projects.

Digital Culture 89 Growth Over the Years Changes Over | There was a marked increase in the number of international cultural activites that DutchCulture tracked in 2019. This is likely a result of a combination of the contin- ued efforts of focused international cultural policy, increasing internationalization of the cultural industries around the world as well as a streamlining of our data Time collection processes. The top countries remain stable, all being countries that are either large (in size and/or cultural industry), close in cultural proximity to the Netherlands, or geographically close (or a combination of the three). 2019 Discipline Change Across Time Country Ranking Across Time This chart shows the growth of activities by discipline This Chart shows the change in country ranking based from 2015 to 2019. on number of activities from 2015 to 2019. 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2016 US US DE DE DE 2015 DE DE US US US 2018 BE FR FR BE BE GB BE BE GB GB 2017 FR GB GB FR FR ES CN CN CN IT IT IT IT TR CN JP ES JP RU JP CA JP BR JP RU RU BR ES IT BR CN RU RU KR TR BR CH KR BR ES CH CZ CA ES KR PL CA CH PL CH CZ AU AU CH PL HU PL PL AU CA NO AT AT CA AU AU HU NO AT ID AT UA TR ID AT TR ID IN CZ CZ IN TR GR DK PT FI IN SE SE HU PT SE ID PT ZA MX KR MX HU SE SE AR DK IE SK ID NO CZ MX NO ZA ZA PT FI DK EL PT AR AR MX DK SK ZA EG AR AR CO HU CO FI HR FI HR GR EG KR MX FI NO TW IE HR LU RO HR SI EL TW IN RO EE IE IL NZ IL RO RO IE ZA GR Architecture TW DK RO SI LU Journalism RS TW CO HR UA LU RS SI IL TH Digital Culture IL AE RS TW IE Music AE EE CL RS SI Performing arts CL IL EG LU RS Audiovisual Media CO NZ IS MA IN TH BG GE SK CO Visual Arts SG LU NZ CR NZ Heritage VN SI TH MK SG Design BG SG BA TH CR Literature LV MA LT BA EE MY TH VE EE LT UA CL AE VN MA.
