“Ways have been found, in a unique way, to finance each sector in culture the wrong way. Artists are now working as if they are in a factory, and instead of forming society’s taste, they are forced to cater to this taste so as to earn more money,” caretaker Minister of Culture, conductor Nayden Todorov said in an interview with bTV. “The number of people engaged in every sphere of culture has been going down. If we want culture to exist in 20 years’ time we need to start working now. It is too late but we can at least salvage something,” Minister Todorov said. “There is no regulatory framework regarding what is happening to the cultural values outside the territory of the country,” Nayden Todorov said further. I do not have an answer to the question would I accept if I was invited to be minister of culture again, Nayden Todorov said further.
