The Spanish government, previously with the PSOE and now with the PP, has been messing around for a while now with a new law for cultural patronage. With everyone waiting to see, if once and for all, they grant all the possible fiscal incentives to the most powerful, so that they can finally lend support to culture. Once the law is in place, the rich will emerge from behind the woodwork, who have been sitting waiting in the hope of helping more independent proposals, production centres, structures designed for the professionalization of young artists and platforms for critical thought and it will all be lovely, loads of fun and in 3D. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s not that the large institutions are going to be left once again with the whole cake, or that the people with money will increasingly gain power on the boards and enjoy grand parties when the museums are closed. No, with the new law everything will function well and the sector will be covered, and each of us will have a clothes sponsor: we\u2019ll simply have to choose the brand and they will be delighted to support culture. <\/p>\n
So we can now eliminate all public support, as with these patrons everything will be under control. If later it turns out that the money originates who knows where, that there is some form of fiscal fraud \u2026 we\u2019ll turn a blind eye and won\u2019t be critical, thanks to the law of patronage they will be our protectors, and as Samuel Eto’o already said, there\u2019s no biting the hand that feeds you. <\/p>\n
