Book Club: with Antony Gormley & Martin Gayford

<div>In this week's books podcast, Sam Leith is joined by the sculptor Antony Gormley and the art critic Martin Gayford to talk about their new book <em>Shaping The World: Sculpture from Prehistory to Now. </em>They talk about the special place sculpture occupies in the arts, the lines of connection between its ancient origins and the avant-garde, and their views on the new fashion for tearing down statues. Plus, Antony talks about his own work from Field to the Angel of the North — and why he and Martin can't see eye-to-eye on the Baroque.</div><div><br></div> <hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
