Can Baltimore Save Its World-Class Orchestra?
Or ballet?
Museums of art?
So much of the traditional high culture of the West has been increasingly dependent for decades on the patronage of the rich.
With the rise of ever more assertive philistinism backed by PC rejection of white, male, Christian, and Western civilization the market continues to dry up for actual education (liberal arts) as opposed to expensive vocational training and grievance training (Black Studies, Women's Studies, etc.), and so will the market for expensive arts.
When will the Elgin Marbles become so many, er, white elephants?
Everyone notices the eclipse of paper books but, like the replacement of paper with online news sources, this has also meant a significant decline in the quality of what is available, responding to a decline in the market for actual literature as well as actual news.
Anyway, vocational education is a mug's game, in a world in which AI means eventually all humans will be made redundant.
