The Frieze Debate: Museums in the 21st Century, with BBC Radio 3

Tuesday 2 October 2018, 6-8pm.

in Frieze Masters | 20 SEP 18

How do encyclopaedic museums make 1000s of years of history relevant to today’s audiences? How is the digital age shaping the way we look and experience art?

On Tuesday 2 October at 6pm at the Royal Institution in Mayfair, Frieze will present a panel of global museum directors who will debate these questions with Anne McElvoy for a recorded broadcast of Free Thinking, BBC Radio 3’s flagship art and ideas programme and available as a BBC Arts and Ideas podcast. 

Panellists include Hartwig Fischer (British Museum), Michael Govan (Los Angeles County Museum of Art) and Sabine Haag (Kunsthistorisches Museum). The discussion will be broadcast on BBC radio 3 on Thursday 4 October.

It is one of the world’s foremost presenters, creators, commissioners and curators across classical, folk, world, jazz and contemporary music as well as drama, philosophy and ideas. The station has always nurtured extraordinary artistic talents, provided a platform for important scientific and political debates/announcements, and broadcast ground-breaking experimental drama – always while delivering its core aim of connecting audiences with pioneering music and culture. The station is also the most significant commissioner of new and contemporary music in the UK, with 35 new works commissioned annually and broadcasts over 600 concerts a year, including live broadcasts from the greatest classical music festival in the world (BBC Proms).
