Episode notes

In the latest episode of Art Persists, we speak to journalist, writer, and Chief Contributing Editor of The Art Newspaper, Gareth Harris.

We chat about Gareth’s book, Censored Art Today, two years after its publication. We reflect on how censorship of the arts has changed and transformed since the book’s release - including the silencing of artists in the wake of Israel’s war on Gaza. We go on to discuss controversial statues and what to do with them, as well as the ongoing impact of social media on artists and the arts.
