Free Thinking

Philip Dodd chairs a debate about arts broadcasting past and present, recorded in front of an audience at Tate Britain to tie in with their exhibition about Kenneth Clark.

What is the future of arts broadcasting? Tate Britain's exhibition Kenneth Clark: Looking For Civilization, looks back at the career of art historian and former Director of the National Gallery, and the series he presented on BBC Two in 1969. What does it mean to explore art through the prism of a landmark series? In an increasingly diverse broadcasting landscape, what could a new version of Civilization say about the role of the arts now?

Dodd chairs a panel including Dr Janina Ramirez in front of an audience in the Clore Auditorium at Tate Britain.
