What does Mondrian tell us with his painting 'Victory Boogie Woogie' and how can we understand Vermeer's 'Girl with a Pearl Earring'? Who actually pays for art and culture? What role models does Hollywood provide us with? If these are questions that interest you, then you should definitely consider the Master’s in Arts and Culture.
