Grayson Perry says Covid will clear 'a bit of dead wood' in the arts
"I think every part of life has probably got a bit of fat that needs trimming, a bit of dead wood," he told The Arts Society magazine.
"It's awful that the culture sector has been decimated, but I think some things needed to go."
His comments attracted ire from some in the arts, but others backed him up.
He continued: "Too often, the audience for culture is just the people making it - theatres with whole audiences of actors, or exhibitions only put on to impress other curators.
"With Covid, it's been like turning a computer off and on again, and seeing which files reappear. Some of them we don't really give a damn about. What's interesting is what might not re-emerge."
