Already been said but reiterating, with funding may (very likely) come an expectaion or requirement on part of funder to alter the recipient's art. Perhaps too much like the patronage system.

Samuel Johnson defined a patron as "one who looks with unconcern on a man struggling for life in the water, and, when he has reached ground, encumbers him with help".[snip]

Could be very dangerous ground and would require advocats that will not budge on authenticity and will not permit application of glossy or twee marketing and/or production or co-opting of art by the funder.
