Abstract: Many studies on the creative labor market have been done with the purpose to get knowledge on the creative workers employment, working conditions, income etc. (e.g. Alper and Wassall (2006), Throsby (2001), Throsby and Hollister (2003), Heian, Løyland and Mangset (2008), Abbing (2002). Most studies have been based on interviews and this approach has of course its pros and cons. Very few studies are based on true longitudinal data making it possible to study artists income development and survival in the professions (one exception is Coulangeon et al., 2005) The aim of this study is to analyze, comparatively for different groups of artists, the factors that affect 1) the income of artists, and 2) the probability of an artist exits the artists labor market. The paper compares different groups of artists, by looking at income functions and survival functions concerning risks to exit the labor market, using event history techniques (survival functions and Cox regressions).

Abstract: Det er helt centralt i Richards Floridas teori om vækst, at kunne tiltrække den kreative klasse, men hvad er det egentlig som tiltrækker den kreative klasse? Formålet med denne artikel er at undersøge hvad det er for kultur- og fritidsaktiviteter den kreative klasse især benytter sig af. Det er dels interessant fra et kulturpolitisk og ikke mindst et regionalt udviklingspolitisk ståsted: hvad er det for kultur- og fritidsaktiviteter den kreative klasse bruger og tiltrækkes af? Dels er det interessant at undersøge, fordi det er punkt, hvor Florida ikke er særlig nuanceret. Den danske kulturvaneundersøgelse indeholder detaljerede data om den danske befolknings brug af de fleste kultur- og fritidstilbud. Ved at koble disse data med data for befolkningens arbejdsstilling opdelt på Richard Floridas klassificering, kan der opnås en helt ny viden om, hvad det er for kultur- og fritidstilbud den kreative klasse benytter, og dermed – må man antage – tiltrækkes af. Resultaterne, som er baseret på multivariate regressionsanalyser, viser nogle markante tendenser. Den kreative klasse er generelt mere aktive end serviceklassen på en række af de mere ”populære” og ”brede” kulturområder. Den kreative kerne adskiller sig for derimod ved at være mere kreative i deres fritid end andre. Herudover er de bl.a. mere interesseret i litteratur og viden, kulturarv og historie samt klassiske kulturformer som klassisk musik og teater. Endelig viser analysen, at der er en række kultur- og fritidsaktiviteter, hvor den kreative klasse ikke synes at adskille sig fra andre grupper. Det gælder først og fremmest en række hverdagskulturelle hjemlige aktiviteter, nogle ”brede” kulturaktiviteter samt mere oplevelsesorienterede familieaktiviteter.

Some descriptive results from DenmarkBille, Trine (, 2008)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to analyze the labor market for artists and in the creative industries more broadly: How important is a formal education for jobs in the creative industries? How are the careers of people with a creative education? Do they work in the creative industries or outside the creative industries? How is the profile of the jobs within the creative industries? Alper and Wassall (2006) present an overview of the economic, mainly empirical research concerning the labor market of artists. Different types of studies can be distinguished: theoretical models of artistic career processes, qualitative interviews and data, retrospective surveys and panel data based on surveys (either true panel studies or quasi panel studies). Some of the most extended studies on artists’ earnings are done by Alper and Wassall on American census data, where data comes from peoples selfreporting in surveys, and peoples’ occupation is based on time spent at work during a single reference week. This do obvious have some drawbacks. Register data from Statistics Denmark representing true panel data, makes it possible to overcome some of these problems and gain new knowledge on the career patterns of artists, their income, the importance of education, multiple jobholding etc. The register data used in this paper includes a lot of variables on socio-economy, income, employment etc. for the Danish population in the period 1994-2003. The paper includes a discussion and delimitation of artist and the creative industries, and presents new empirical results on the labor market for artists and in the creative industries URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7750 Files in this item: 1

Does it make sense?Bille, Trine (Frederiksberg, 2010)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper discusses the concept of the experience economy in a Nordic context and shows how the Nordic version of the concept has come about from a mix of three different approaches and theories. Besides, the Nordic definition links the experience economy closely with cultural activities. In the Nordic countries the experience economy has been developed in a political context and it is apparently a popular development policy for local government authorities and regions. This paper discusses the Nordic definition of experience economy and questions if it makes any sense. The definition of experiences is not clear, and the definition of the word “economy” has different interpretations as well. In a narrow interpretation the term economy is related to market economic value, which is used in the political terminology. The paper shows that the experience economy can follow three different routes to market value creation, and how the growth opportunities for the different experience areas will depend on three different trends. Therefore, it can be shown that only some experience areas are growing, and the market value creation occurs in very different ways and to very different extents within, and in relation to, the different experience areas. The greatest growth potential resides probably in the broad value creation in association with the experience areas. But the experience economy does not lend itself to any consistent definition.

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to study careers and income conditions of performing artists in Denmark on the basis of national statistics. The paper uses three different criteria for defining performing artist, and looks at the implications observed on careers and income conditions. The three different criteria for defining performing artists are: 1) Having a job as performing artist, 2) Graduation from a performing art school, and 3) Membership of professional performing artist’s association. The paper has focus on three questions: How are the income conditions of performing artists in the period 1996 – 2007? How are the career length and patterns of the performing artists in Denmark? How is the careers related to the income conditions of the artists? The results concerning the living conditions for performing artists shows in general very low income levels for most of the artists, and only about 1/3 of them are working within the theatre sector. A regression model for 2007 shows a positive effect on earning of age, being a man, working in Copenhagen capital area, having work experience, having a basic actor education, and work as a dancer/choreograph or as an actor/director. The analysis of career length shows that most performing actors have very short careers of one or two years. Cross-tabulations for 2007 shows that those with short careers in general have very low income, while those with longer careers have substantial higher income, and most of them have an income high enough to make a living.
