AMERICA IN IN CLOSE-UP THE ARTS

The stereotype:
culture in USA = TY+sports
But!
+ theatre
+ cinema+museums
+pop/country/roc festivals+ etc...
These activities are growing from year to year

The government support is very little
Promotion of arts is through private and commerical funding

America is “melting pot” of languages and cultures.
The artists try to create their own style.
The styles of American art are as diverse as the people
A lot of influences: European Arts, ethnic cultures ...
