A new report, Kulturbarometern i detalj: Tema Konst, museer och utstallningar ('The Barometer of Culture in Detail: Theme Art, Museums and Exhibitions') has recently (Spring 1995) been published by the National Council for Cultural Affairs. Its introductory part presents the Swedish population as visitors to museums, historic and prehistoric sites. Its second part describes the general interest among the population for arts and crafts and the ways in which they are expressed. It is based on interviews conducted in 1993 by the Audience and Program Research Department (now closed) at the Swedish Broadcasting Corporation. The results represent attitudes in all Swedish-speaking people in Sweden between 15 and 79 years of age.
