The Otolith Snoop « Cathedral Of Shit

Turner Prize nominee The Otolith Group is an Arts Council Regularly Funded Organisation (an arts organisation like the Serpentine, Tate or Afterall, which is guaranteed funding over a three year period before being reviewed and considered for further funding.)

“Now we all know that individual artists get funding from ACE and then go off and win marvelous prizes, but there does seem to a significant difference between getting a one-off grant for 5k and doing an exhibition and having annual funding that is being raised from 25k in 2009/2010 to 70k in 2010/11”

I know The Otolith Group and their work. They get public funding for all the curatorial work and research and writing that they do. They do not get funded for the production of their artworks. It is kind of stupid and pointless attacking them as all this is known and public anyway. Also they work tirelessly and have done for years. They deserve all the good that is coming to them. lastly maintaining RFO status is no easy task. Your entry here just seems to stem from jealousy.
