  • NMDC Response to the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee Inquiry Into Tourism
    NMDC response to CMS Select Committee Inquiry into Tourism This response is submitted on behalf of the National Museum Directors’ Council (NMDC). The NMDC represents the leaders of the UK's national collections and major regional museums. Our members are the national and major regional museums in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, the British Library, the National Library of Scotland, and the National Archives. While our members are funded by government, the NMDC is an independent, non- governmental organisation. For more information on our activity and a full list of members see our website: www.nationalmuseums.org.uk Summary Museums are a critical part of the UK tourism offer, and visiting museums has never been so popular. Museums continue to develop their offer and operation to attract both domestic and overseas tourists. Museums and heritage continue to be primary reasons to visit Britain. Museums play a very significant role in the development of the regional tourist industry. They are frequently the most visited attraction in a town, city or region. They are also active in workforce development in this aspect of the tourism sector, including via apprenticeships and the sharing of good practice through local networks. Museum partnerships are an excellent and successful way of encouraging regional tourism, as well as building on the success of London. These partnerships have also helped with the regeneration of coastal towns built around culture or heritage. However, despite being so integral to the tourist industry, and the fact that supporting tourism is an economic priority for the Government, local authority and central Government investment for museums has substantially reduced since 2010.

Abstract Little art-historical scholarship has been dedicated to fine art responding to the British home front during the First World War. Within pre-war British society concepts of sexual difference functioned to promote masculine authority. Nevertheless in Britain during wartime enlarged female employment alongside the presence of injured servicemen suggested feminine authority and masculine weakness, thereby temporarily destabilizing pre-war values. Adopting a socio-historical perspective, this thesis argues that artworks engaging with the home front have been largely excluded from art history because of partiality shown towards masculine authority within the matrices of British society. Furthermore, this situation has been supported by the writing of art history, which has, arguably, followed similar premise.
