BBC Radio 4 - Hotel Room Art

Ian McMillan gets close to the art in hotel rooms.

Ian McMillan on the inside story of art in hotel rooms - from giant flowers to ancient artefacts.

The inside story of art in hotel rooms - and why hoteliers think it's so important to get it right.  Ian McMillan has always been fascinated by the artworks he finds on his travels. Here he  encounters mass produced flowers, abstract excitement and ancient artefacts. In three very different hotel bedrooms he meets curators, designers and artists - but most importantly he meets the art, and asks why we have ‘art’ hotels .
