Looking back: Mark Rutte thinks only 30 people want to be at art. Why an archive is important.

Culture Press is 11 years old, and I wanted to celebrate with a fun look at the archives. And then I came across this one. From 2011. Just watch this minute video and know that it is not to be expected that a prime minister can change his views a hundred and eighty degrees in 9 years.

This is something the lobby should take into account.

What exactly does Mark Rutte say about the arts? It fits in 1 minute and it's not quite right.

Have fun in the one-half-meter world of art.
