Distrust of governments is one thing, but you're likely to have the same issues with corporations, but without any oversight to keep them honest. Organizations can be more liberal, but have the same cross-country issues that governments have.
I don't see this as working until the entire planet is under one government, or at least, one common financial market. (This is me, not holding my breath.)
To me, direct subsidizing (salaries) through advertisers/governments/corporations/organizations/patrons/what-have-you is looking better and better, at least for a realistic near-term solution. Then it's up to the artist to find their own financial source. If such subsidization was tax-deductible (and in many places, it is), it would be financially attractive for many institutions and individuals. And at least, given the global market, it might be easier to find your patron.
Of course, substantially, this might not be much different from working for any production company...
