Samenvatting
Arts policy has a longstanding relationship with the concept of “quality” and the ways in which organisations measure, evaluate, and account for it. Culture Counts, an evaluation system and digital platform, compiles data from standardised evaluation surveys of different stakeholder groups – organisations, audiences, critics, funders, and peers – and provides the means to compare and triangulate data in an accessible format. As a result, it claims to provide a more effective, democratic tool for quality measurement of art, which demonstrates the public value of funding. Through qualitative research with two consortia of organisations involved in Culture Counts pilot projects in Manchester, England, and Victoria, Australia, authors explore these claims, comparing the reception and promotion of the system in both countries and considering its potential incorporation into policy assessment frameworks and adoption within arts organisations’ existing evaluation capacities. |
