Germaine Greer nominates sculptor Dame Elizabeth Frink
She was best known for striking sculptures ranging from horses and goats, to wild eagles and disembodied heads.
As a female sculptor working in a man's world, Elisabeth Frink found it hard to establish herself in the 1950s.
To help tell the story of her hero, Germaine Greer is joined by Frink's son, Lin Jammet, and the art critic Richard Cork.
Presented by Matthew Parris.
Producer: Perminder Khatkar
First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in April 2017.
