The Art of Corruption

There are all kinds of corruption. Some are pretty easy to identify.
You can’t miss it when a congressman sells the public’s vote for
money, say, or a husband sets his personal promises at nothing in
order to score some extracurricular sex. But the slow rot that enters
the soul of individuals when the tendrils of the state overcreep the
life of a society—that’s a little tougher to define. It may just be
the toadying deference that steals into your behavior with the guard
who searches you at the airport. Or it could be the baksheesh you pay
the safety inspector to keep your business from being shut down. But
as subtle as the effects may be, the rule is ironclad: the more areas
of life are funded and regulated by government, the less free you are,
and the more corrupt and servile you ultimately become.

Through the work of artist and blogger Patrick Courrielche, Andrew
Breitbart’s new website Big Government http://biggovernment.com/ —
reporting the news so the mainstream media won’t have to—has just
released a sickening transcript of an August 10 conference call
jointly hosted by the National Endowment for the Arts, the White
House’s Office of Public Engagement, and United We Serve, an
initiative overseen by the Corporation for National and Community
Service, a federal agency. The purpose of the call was to urge a group
of pro-Obama artists to get out there and start creating art that
would support the president’s agenda on health care, the environment,
education, and community services. Speaking at the request of “folks
in the White House and folks in the NEA,� Michael Skolnick, political
director for Obama-mad hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, told the
assembled artists, “All of us who are on this phone call were selected
for a reason, and you are the ones that lead by example in your
communities. You are the thought leaders. You are the ones that, if
you create a piece of art, or promote a piece of art or create a
campaign for a company, and tell our country and our young people sort
of what do and what to be into, and what’s cool and what’s not cool.�

As an artist, I feel it incumbent upon myself to pause here to become
violently ill. Never mind that the phone call may have broken several
lobbying laws. Forget that the NEA’s Yosi Sergant is now proven to
have lied when he denied the NEA’s role in initiating the call. Let’s
not even concern ourselves with the fact that White House official
Buffy Wicks directed the artists to channel their efforts through
Serve.gov, a White House website with ties to the corrupt Acorn.

No, let’s just talk about art. It’s hard out here on us creative types
right now. When times are tough, truth and beauty sink pretty low on
the national shopping list. The NEA, according to its own website, is
“the nation’s largest annual funder of the arts.� It gives tens of
millions of dollars a year in grants to artists and art organizations.
It does this, according to the legislation that established it, to
“help create and sustain not only a climate encouraging freedom of
thought, imagination, and inquiry but also the material conditions
facilitating the release of this creative talent.� It is there, in
other words, to protect artists’ freedom from the corrupting influence
of financial deprivation.

The transcript of this phone call proves that the NEA has deeply
betrayed that mission. Corrupted by the White House, it has moved to
corrupt the artists who look to it for their daily bread. It doesn’t
matter that it didn’t actually offer these artists money in exchange
for propaganda; its very presence on the line constituted an implied
offer of access. It doesn’t matter that the artists on the call were
already Obama supporters. Simply by presenting a mission that excluded
those who did not support the president’s agenda, the NEA violated the
very first principle of its establishing legislation: “The arts and
the humanities belong to all the people of the United States.�

And whether or not these artists will bite into the apple of
governmental corruption—whether or not they’ll allow their creativity
to be guided by the blandishments of the state—the phone call is proof
of the depths of this administration’s intentions to corrupt. It
seeks, as statist government always seeks, to modify and control human
behavior through the doling out and withholding of money and favor.
And in seeking to enlist the arts, it has taken this overbearing and
ultimately corrupting practice to the deepest and most spiritual level
we know.
