To lead into this conversation, we invited the social thinker and writer Dougald Hine to share some thoughts and questions about artistic livelihoods and their long-term sustainability, drawing on his experiences as co-founder of the Dark Mountain Project and a school called HOME, as well as his work as leader of artistic development at Riksteatern.
The outcome was published as a special appendix to the magazine Konstnären in June 2021. The publication has been developed by Konstnärernas Riksorganisation as part of the project Konststartskommissionen, with support by the Swedish Arts Council.
