Arts (music, painting, dance, etc) are not culture. They are _expressions_ of culture. Culture is our nature, it's how we form bonds that secure our survival. It is not separate manifestations of individual "genius", ready for consumption. That is capitalism. Capitalism's function is to maximize access to, and control over, resources, material and immaterial, for a limited group. Separating cultural expression from culture, and culture from nature is a key strategy, with strong racist implications.
