The UK has a rich and diverse artistic heritage. British poets, playwrights, musicians, painters and filmmakers have left works that continue to be enjoyed and admired all over the world.
Today, the massive scope of artistic expression in the UK reflects the personal freedom, prosperity and cultural diversity of the British people.
The UK government recognises and encourages the substantial contribution to the economy made by the ‘creative industries’.
These industries include advertising, architecture, designer fashion, film and video, video games, music, the performing arts, television and radio.
