This paper seeks to articulate the value of the small-scale visual arts sector within the wider arts ecology. The paper explores the significance potential small-scale organisations have in the present cultural landscape and economy, also detailing the operational and investment challenges they face in realising this. Finally, it advocates a reconsideration of present assessment and investment practices. Size Matters was presented in a variety of forums to stimulate discussion around its core questions whose urgency has increased in recent months.The paper has been followed by Common Practice's research papers Value, Measure, Sustainability : Ideas Towards the Future of the Small-Scale Visual Arts Sector, by Rebecca Gordon Nesbitt, and Practicing Solidarity, written by London-based artist and researcher Carla Cruz.
