They correlate strongly because being crazy means you to think outside the box and unlike other people by definition. Thus creative, once you're creative it's easier to be an artist.

I guess the question becomes, how much value should be placed on the making of art and other cultural pursuits that don't make a profit but might contribute to a richer more fulfilling culture.
That value would then be confired to the artists who would basically be on welfare for the purpose of producing art as a hobby, ie not something that you have to produce to care for yourself.
