Interest-free loans for contemporary art: ** Please share, if you think this is a good idea. Its nice to see ideas like this coming up from a major metropolitan council, in Australia... unfortunately, it only partially makes up for all the cuts to the Arts weve seen at a Federal level, in recent times. Imagine something such as this implemented on a National scale! A proposal going before City of Sydney councillors [tonight] would mean the City helps to establish an interest-free loans scheme for people buying art from local galleries. The goal: to make art more accessible to those with shallower pockets than your typical collector, and to get more artworks sold. smh.au/entertainment/art-and-design/interestfree-loans-for-contemporary-art-on-the-table-at-city-of-sydney-20140914-10gpe6.html
