Programme Summary:
This Talk about English programme is on the topic of art and public art in particular. You don't always have to go to a gallery or museum to experience art, sometimes it is there in public places. The London Underground is a famous public transport network but it also has a strong tradition in art. We find out more about this with our guest who is responsible for a continuing programme to bring art to the underground.
