Trade Review
"This is now a central book on this subject, and a leader in terms of its international multi-author and authoritative explication of every major dimension of management, organisation, and production of the arts. It pushes beyond the traditional topics of ‘arts management’ to include the vital subjects of leadership, policy, law, and community engagement." Jonathan Vickery, Director, Centre for Cultural and Media Policy Studies, University of Warwick, UK
"An excellent resource both for students looking to understand how the arts are approached and managed in the world today, as well as for practitioners looking to expand their understanding of how arts management works. The international perspective brings knowledge from around the world to inform readers of best practices and the theories that support them. Regardless of the specific artform one works in, this book is a vital resource that explores both the peculiarities of arts management in general as well as exploring the unique positions that are discipline specific." Anthony Rhine, Clinical Associate of Management, Pace University, USA
"This highly readable and impeccably researched volume is a tremendous addition to the arts and culture literature. A consistent and much-appreciated effort has been made to unite research and practice as necessary and complementary parts of the same whole, providing readers with vital tools that are grounded in time-tested theory." Travis Newton, Le Moyne College, USA and author of Orchestra Management Handbook
"The book provides a holistic perspective on creative industries, both in terms of theory and practice, also covering different sectors and specializations. Creative industries were at the frontline during the pandemics and better understanding like the one provided by this book is extremely needed to fully support their recovery and growth. The diversity of authors in terms of expertise and focus exhibits the right combination of attributes to make out of this book an outstanding contribution to the field of cultural management." Montserrat Pareja-Eastaway, University of Barcelona, Spain
"This textbook provides a timely look at multiple facets of the creative industries with international representation, in a way that speaks to the increasing overlap of theoretical and practical work. At a time when practitioners are expected to know and benefit from past lessons in the field, it will equip readers with those lessons and the ability to articulate the theoretical underpinnings of their management decisions." Brea Heidelberg, Drexel University, USA
