Notice Title

The Livelihoods of Visual Arts in England - work, life, money

Notice Description

Arts Council England wishes to procure a service provider to carry out research that will enable a comprehensive understanding of how artists in England live and work, depending on the nature of their practice, where they are located and the social, economic and cultural influencing factors. There is a lack of any comprehensive data and analysis on how professional practising visual artists in England are operating financially, how they derive economic benefits from their practice and other related and non-related activity, to be able to work and live. A comprehensive study in relation to visual artists in England which can clearly inform and be practically applied in a 'real world' context, is needed, based on a foundation of robust data collection and analysis.
