What’s the future of visual arts?

The Cultural Frontline

Available for over a year

Art galleries and museums globally are struggling with the coronavirus pandemic, with some closing permanently. This week on The Cultural Frontline, Tina Daheley hosts a discussion on what’s next for the visual arts and how artists and curators are radically re-thinking the future of the art world. Her panel includes Israeli born artist and educator Oreet Ashery; South Sudanese artist and photographer Atong Atem; Ben Vickers, Chief Technology Officer at the Serpentine Gallery; and Tim Marlow, Director and Chief Executive of the Design Museum in London and former Artistic Director of the Royal Academy of Arts.
