Shakespeare in cartoons, Jess Phillips, Sidney Nolan's Australian legends

Available for over a year

MP Jess Phillips on life in the public eye. Plus Ned Kelly, Lady Macbeth, one once flesh and blood, the other imagined into being, yet both have done sterling work as ciphers to the human condition. Anne McElvoy talks to Rebecca Daniels, curator of an exhibition marking the centenary of Australia's great myth-maker, the artist Sidney Nolan and to David Taylor, curator of an exhibition at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre about the way memorable images work and legends are made-they are joined by Lorna Miller and Kevin 'Kal' Kallaugher, who draw on their experience as political cartoonists. Transferences: Sidney Nolan in Britain runs at the Pallant House Gallery in Chichester from 18th February 2017 - 4th June 2017 and part of centenary programming across 2017.
