Ministering to the Arts

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

A four-part series in which
Sir Roy Strong investigates the relationship between the state and those organisations and individuals that make up the artistic life of the nation. 1: From "Hand-outs" to "Hands-on " The power relationship between the Arts Council and the ministry responsible for subsidising the arts has always been an uneasy one. This first programme traces how the Government's non-interventionist approach of the 1950s evolved to one of "hands-on" in the 1980s.
