Abstract

The article analyzes the forms of independent work of artists and designers and questions whether they really constitute a model exploitable by capital as some governmental initiatives suggest. The author analyzes concepts like “creativity” and “cultural industries” and explores the symbolic function of debates about creative industries in political, economic and social processes. Regarding creative industries, she points out that they are not a reality, but a discourse accompanied by the international will to make them real as soon as possible.
