Government funding for the arts

Expert replies
by kvitkod » Sun May 29, 2011 8:36 am
Government funding for the arts must be increased if we expect to develop artists that will be remembered in the same class as Da Vinci, Picasso, and Van Gogh. If the government doesn't increase funding, then potentially great artists will be forced to abandon their art solely because they need to make a living.
Which of the following, if true, cast the most doubt on the conclusion about government funding fr the arts mentioned above?
a) Many artists don't have the financial means to support themselves and devote themselves to their art full-time
b) Da Vinci, Picasso, and Van Gogh are all remembered as great artists despite not receiving any government support
c) Artists that are controversial should not be given any government funding
d) Today's artists typically find non government sponsors who support them in the same way that patrons did with Da Vinci, Picasso, and Van Gogh
e) If artists who abuse government funding could be more efficiently discovered, whatever funds are available would be put to better use

Answer is D . Will explain if required and if the opinion matches the OA
PS On a sidenot u mite have thought of c as a probable answer . you can eliminate c because u can counter the weakening effect C would have on the conclusion by saying that perhaps circumstances have changed and one need not expect that some thing that works in the past will work in the future as well

D
Conclusion: If the government doesn't increase funding, then potentially great artists will be forced to abandon their art solely because they need to make a living.

Premise: Government funding for the arts must be increased if we expect to develop artists that will be remembered in the same class as Da Vinci, Picasso, and Van Gogh.

D--> Right on target.. Even though Government stops funding, artists dont have to abandon art as they will still be supported by other patrons.

In B we have the following reasoning:
Da Vinci (and others) did not have a government support, but are remembered now => it shows that such support is not necessary to be remembered. Please point the flaw.

I meant B and not C

On a Second Thought , B is also wrong because it doesnt focus on the conclusion . The conclusion is about todays artists . Vangogh etc dont feature in the conclusion
We have to see why todays artists cant make it to success without government support
not how past artists made it to success without govnmt support .
This will make more sense than my previous explanation
