Why do we spend far more money building sterile palaces to dead artists and their artefacts than supporting living ones?
Presenter Marcus Westbury travels to Newcastle, Australia and looks at the vibrant art culture emerging from outside the art palaces. Marcus contrasts this with the Scottish city of Glasgow and its transformation from industrial age casualty to the hub of youth art in Europe.
Marcus asks whether you can buy culture by building an iconic building or even franchising a McLouvre or McGuggenheim? Or is culture a messy, dirty thing that comes from the bottom up, refuses to behave, is borderline illegal and breaks a lot of occupational health and safety rules?

Not Quite Art is premiering on ABC TV at 10pm on Tuesday 16th of October. Obviously it's on your television if you are in the general vicinity of Australia - so watch it!
BUT If you are in Melbourne there is an opening night launch party at Horse Bazaar!
We'll be there from about 9pm, maybe earlier but the show starts at 10pm...
Howdy, Stranger!
