Abstract

As globalization deepens, the role of cultural policy in arts management is becoming increasingly prominent. The aim of this paper is to explore how cultural policy affects arts management and what this means for arts development. Based on the current economic turn in cultural policy and the new demands on arts management practice, it focuses on the relationship between cultural policy and arts management, particularly how policy shapes arts management strategies and practices in a context where economic interests are the central focus. This study uses literature analysis and case studies to analyze how policy affects organizational structure, funding flows, and program implementation in arts management. The findings suggest that cultural policy not only provides financial support for arts programs, but also influences the freedom of artistic expression and the direction of the art market. The study concludes that cultural policy is an indispensable external factor in arts management and that it has a profound impact on all aspects of arts management by providing resources and setting the framework. Arts administrators need to have a deep understanding of cultural policy in order to better adapt to policy changes, effectively utilize policy resources, and promote the sustainable development of the arts.
