Cet article analyse les moyens dont les artistes entrepreneurs disposent pour protéger leur liberté de création artistique et atténuer ainsi leur dépendance à l’égard des mécanismes qui les gouvernent. Il s’appuie sur une étude de cas multiples dans le secteur de l’art vivant. Les résultats de l’analyse de contenu manuelle des entretiens semi-directifs, menés auprès de cinq structures culturelles d’art vivant de Bourgogne, mettent en évidence l’importance des réseaux et des mécanismes informels, tels que la confiance et la réputation, ainsi que les relations durables avec les parties prenantes. Le recours aux mécanismes formels et intentionnels de gouvernance, tel que le conseil d’administration, joue un rôle d’une importance très variable d’un cas à l’autre.
