Oscar Murillo’s essay Open to the Public? was published in August 2021 to coincide with the Artangel × Oscar Murillo exhibition Frequencies and a return to Murillo’s thinking around the role of governments in education. Open to the Public takes a critical view of the New Labour Government of 1997–2010’s policies on the arts – namely, the provision of generous funding for the ‘cultural industries’, with the simultaneous adoption of neoliberal strategies.

The fonts used for in book design are RV Shaddick and Mvsevm. Both were designed by Henrik Kubel of A2-TYPE, who kindly allowed Artangel to use them across the campaign that we devised for the Frequencies show.
