The impact of art in contemporary times has evolved exponentially from that of previous generations. Art not only contributes to our entertainment and mental health but also drives the economy to the tune of over $1 trillion dollars annually.
The arts and cultural sector contributed 4.3% of the United States' gross domestic product (GDP) in 2022, or $1.1 trillion. The arts economy grew 4.8% in inflation-adjusted dollars between 2021 and 2022, which was much higher than the growth rate of the broader economy. To further emphasize its' sizable economic value the arts and cultural share of total GDP exceeds 5% in Washington, the District of Columbia, New York and California.

ACTIVATIONS: IMPACT THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
Public art plays a crucial role in generating economic benefits and raising awareness. It can attract visitors, increase property values, all while creating a sense of community. R7 Activations specializes in placing art in the public purview and developing its communicative properties into coherent expressions that are not abstract but rather literal. R7 founder and activation designer, Robert Young maintains, "Although art is often subjective in nature, when it aims to convey clear and tangible communication its impact can be immediate and long-lasting."
R7 Activations division, GlobalPublic.Art, has ideate, produced, and designed experiential public art activations that have adorned the likes of Hard Rock Stadium and the Fontainebleau Hotel Miami at an epic 65ft tall and 50ft wide, as well twice been displayed in the Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), Canada's largest art institution.
