American pop artist and provocateur Rob Pruitt talks about his art and his DCA exhibition.

On a rare visit to Scotland, American pop artist and provocateur Rob Pruitt talks about his artworks, including those currently on display at Dundee's DCA.

A cocaine buffet, glittery pandas, a seven foot chrome monument to Andy Warhol, a pair of Jimmy Choos...just some of the work produced by American pop artist and provocateur, Rob Pruitt. And that doesn't include the pairs of concrete jeans and branded mineral water fountain currently on display at DCA in Dundee. Clare catches up with the true iconoclast on a rare visit to Scotland. 

Barbers, Tailors, White vans and more, open their doors for an evening of art and music in Leith. BBC Radio Scotland presenter, Vic Galloway, and director of LeithLate, Morvern Cunningham, tell us why the Walk is the place to be. 

And, big thinkers and innovators descend on Edinburgh this week for the annual TEDGlobal conference. Vic Galloway will be going along for some inspiration.
