Semi off-topic (re: Arts Olympics)

[personal profile] pantasma 2013-08-12 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
There is an element of art and music in the Olympics. Groups and artists from attending countries can present their work, but it's mostly a way to promote the culture of the host city/country. I was a member of a choir featured in an Arts Olympics concert, once upon a time. I had read about arts presentations in the Olympics from the '70s (an article about a local woman who'd won gold in sculpting, I think), but had no idea they were still part of the Olympics until we were recruited for the performance.

Unfortunately, like you said, "one person's interest is another person's apathy," so they're never advertised or discussed in the mass media surrounding the games, let alone broadcasted.

I like to think artists would be more open to protesting through their presentations. But since no-one hears about them, let alone in the context of DA GAMES, it a) wouldn't do much good and b) might be riskier for them without the media attention like athletes would receive if prosecuted for their views. They could be dragged away or beaten to death without anyone the wiser, yet still be Olympic representatives.
